If the batch file starts an application that continues running
as a process, someone on here (can't recall who) made an
alias called
isprocess that you could call as an identifier
and supply it with the file name of the process, it would
return $true if the process existed. Do a search of these
forums for
isprocess .. set the date range to 5 years.

Nevermind about the search, I searched for you 
It was tidy_trax here it is.
