How to check and see if an application (exe) is already running

[jason_kelly]

Hi There,

I need your help,

What would the vba code if I wanted to check and see if an application (ie. applicationA.exe) was already running?

I'd ideally like to have a MSGBOX popup and say "The application is already running" if the application is not running, load it.

Much thanks and appreciation for all your help.

Cheers,

Jay
