Hi All,
Does anyone know of a way to test to see if a particular program is running in the background on the computer?
Alternatively, does anyone know if the command “doesFileexist” return a “false” response with regard files that are presently open or are being written to?
Thanks,
Mike
Mike,
This may not help at all, but testing whether an app is running is extremely easy in VB, C++ or even (and probs most simply) as a batch file – just search for it in Google.
Probably won’t help, but thought I’d put this penny in…

Thanks Tim, but I need to get feedback into MAXscript so that my code knows that a particular *.exe is not running!
Thx,
Mike
Not sure what version of Max you’re running, but this shouldn’t be too difficult with .Net in the new Max?
Anyway, good luck!!
Tim
