I'm making an app that will check to see if a certian process is running on a computer. I need to be able to check to see if it's running, if not, then run it. I've just gotten done w/ my first semester of VB but they didn't go into alot of detail so i've been digging though the MSDN at microsoft trying to find a way to do it. I found the Process method and i'm hoping it's the way to go I just need a bit of direction to get started. Here's what I am thinking. ..
Use the Process.GetProcessName to assign the name to a "as process" variable. Then do an "if then" type comparison to see if it's running, the false path would use the Process.ProcessStart to get it going again.
What i need here is confirmation or direciton on what to do. I'm doing my home work and testing things out, i just don't know enough at the moment. Thanks in advance.
