hi,
i need to check if my app has been already ran, to deny multiple 
executions on the same PC.
i've thought to search in the active processes list is there's the .exe 
name of my app; if so restore those process's window and exit from the 
second app's instance.
i'd like to know which API lets me to gather infos on processes.
I know in VB there's an interesting Process32Next/Process32First which 
return good infos, but i can't find it in BCB...
10X
Daniele
