In my program, have to detect whether some process is running or not.
FindWindow can do same functionality but have to input caption name but execution file name.
Isn't there any Win32API(or VB function) that can detect particular executable file is running or not?
Could anyone who know it let me know?
Thank you.

I'm a senior programmer.
Working at CamSight, Dental imaging solutions industry.

refer http://vblib.virtualave.net, there is a function called GetAllProcess in vbSystem, which will tell you all the process in the system as well as the executable of it.
