Just a recap please.
How do you allow only one instance of your program to run?

Hi Petrus,

Just put this code in the FF_WINMAIN special function:


If FF_PrevInstance Then       
        Function = %True    'return %TRUE if you want the program to end.
        Exit Function
End If

You can add a message to inform the end user as well.

Regards,
Jean-Pierre
