Well - I'm using example code, and it does call EnumWindows,
But it lists all processes and all apps that are running. I
don't know why it does both. I am far from an API guy... I
usually do straight C++ code for crunching numbers (number
theory).

I will look into this - excellent.

This is excellent!!! Thank you very much.

Well there is - so, instead of a nice short list of running
windows (apps) there's about 40+ processes listed as well...

Here is the function that does the work:

bool __stdcall EnumProc(HWND hWnd,/*LPARAM*/long/*lp*/)
{
   unsigned long* pPid;   //LPDWORD
   unsigned long result;      //DWORD
   void *hg;                  //HGLOBAL
   unsigned long id;

   if(hWnd==NULL)
      return false;

   hg = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_SHARE,sizeof(unsigned long));
   pPid = (unsigned long *)GlobalLock(hg);

   result = GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWnd,pPid);

                                     // the pPid is what is
                                     // also acquiring the 
                                     // procs ???

   if(result){
      char title[110];
      char className[95];
      char totalStr[256];
      GetClassName(hWnd,className,95);
      GetWindowText(hWnd,title,110);
      id=*pPid;
      ultoa(id,totalStr,10);
      strcat(totalStr,"\t");
      if(title){
         strcat(totalStr,title);
         strcat(totalStr,"\t");
      }
      strcat(totalStr,className);
      FormMain->ListBox1->Items->Add((AnsiString)totalStr);
   }
   else{
      GlobalUnlock(hg);
      GlobalFree(hg);
      return false;
   }
   GlobalUnlock(hg);
   GlobalFree(hg);
   return true;
}

Please note I working from example code. And I also hope I
haven't broken protocol by attaching that much code.

Bob - thanks for the help. I really appreciate you time.

Matthew.
