Launch an application which my application needs running - 
and then close it when my app closes.  The launch is OK
and I can get the correct handle by checking the window text.
I just thought it would be tidier if I could do this using
a process ID.  I suspect that you are right in suggesting that
the application I launch with CreateProcess()is spawning its own
process.  If this is the case, would that be a child process
of the the one spawned by CreateProcess()?  Can I extract ChildProcessIDs?  Must be able to.  RTFM, Mark.

My app takes a data feed from TeleText.  The application which
extracts the teletext data from the TV card is called - in this case - vtplus32.exe.  It finds particular TeleText pages and saves them to a text file, which my app then parses.
