Running shellexec("exe") from a program in directory #1. To Run an exe in another directory #2.
After the exe is closed in directory #2 i need to change a variable in directory #1.
How can I find out when the exe is closed in directory #2 from directory #1.

Thansk always for the help

Harvey,

I don't know the kind of EXE, is running in Directory 2 ( a FWH-application ? )

You can test if any Application is still running with :

DLL32 FUNCTION GetExiCodP;
( hProcess AS LONG, ;
@lpExitCode AS LONG ) ;
AS LONG PASCAL;
FROM "GetExitCodeProcess" LIB "KERNEL32"

DLL32 FUNCTION GetExiCodT;
( hThread AS LONG, ;
@lpExitCode AS LONG ) ;
AS LONG PASCAL;
FROM "GetExitCodeThread" LIB "KERNEL32"

maybe using a Timer to check the Return-value

for more Informations about < GetExitCodeProcess > You can search in the Internet
