Checking Windows Service
Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2015 03:57 PM

Is there a function to test and see if a windows service is running or not?

Thanks,

Jeff Barnes

You can try this (from my notes)--I don't know if it will work.

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

// Check whether the application is already running in the same PC 
if IsExeRunning( cFileName( HB_ARGV( 0 ) ) ) 
   MsgWait( "This application is already running", "Application Name" ) 
   Quit 
endif
