Need help Detecting a 16-bit app running on Nt WS...

Author	Message
Tahi #1 / 2	Need help Detecting a 16-bit app running on Nt WS... I am calling a 16-bit app from vb 6.0. I need to know, when that app is done processing what its suppose to do, So I can read the output through VB and save it to SQL server. The problem I am running into is that I can detect the Process Id for a 32-bit app but not for 16 bit. In my code, I have to wait for the processing by the 16 - app, but it comes back right away and tell me that the app is not running any more...since it never had a ProcessId, and thats what i am looking for.. Will really Appreciate, if helped... Tahir
