[nvinoth123]

Hi,
I wanted to know whether my exe is already running or not and based on that i need to take some action. If it is already running i need to call a button click event of the already running instance else invoke the application.
can any one please help me out in finding the previous instance.
Thanks in advance.

You can write some thing like this:

// Get all instances of program running on the local
// computer.
Process [] xyz = Process.GetProcessesByName("xyz");
