Hello NG,

Access97 on a Windows 2000 Machine -

I have a database that prints labels using a 3rd party printing
software - Occasionally it locks up in the spooler - I went to the Access
web page and used the api Call to see if app is running - if it is running
longer then 5 minutes we want the pc to Beep - Problem Application isn't
what is running -Process is running - anyone have a bit of code to determine
if a Process is running rather then the Application.

TIAFAH

Randy
