Checking Process ID still running -
Hi y'all. Having started a process using Shell(), which returns me the process ID, how can I check whether or not the process is still running? I know I can look for an app with a certain string title but I may have more than one running with the same name and I need to be able to distinguish between the two.
Thanks for any help,
Toot
