OK I am in a dilemma. I need to make or get a program that sees if a certain application is running on a system. If it is than nothing happens. If It is not then I need it to be started. It needs to run under NT. I would also like to run the program(the newly created one) in the systray "if that is possible with Visual Basic"... The program would need to be on a timer and check every so often... Any help would be most appreciated.
