Is Application running or not/Set Application in foreground

[Guest]

Hello,

i've got some questions about developing with VB.NET and the .NET CF.
1. How can i check if a instance of my program is already running on the
Pocket PC? (for example: user starts my program - if a instanz of my program
is already running i close this instance and restart my program)
2. When my program lost focus - cause the user opens another program. How
can i give my program when something happens in my program (like Error
Warning ...) again the focus and set it in the foreground?

I hope you understand my bad english and can help me.

CF apps on PPCs already force the single instance rule.
