Basically it involves using simple manipulations of the System.Diagnostics namespace.

Check out this thread (http://www.xtremedotnettalk.com/showthread.php?t=72989&highlight=PrevInstance) or this thread (http://www.xtremedotnettalk.com/showthread.php?t=49628&highlight=PrevInstance) from the .Net sister forums.

The only thing I don't like in most of what is posted there is the use of 'UBound' - I prefer to see things done more "the .Net way" than by using legacy VB integration. But whatever works. :-/

Yes, divil and volteface should have used .length (as some of the other posters did). I'll have to razz them about it. :p

And what's wrong with MY submission in the .Net Code Library of this forum?? (You'll notice there's no UBound)

Bleh...I didn't find yours searching for 'previnstance' (for relating it to VB6) ... and did find it that way over yonder.
