I have already search on forum but i only have found a code that displays all process running, this one. But i need something that will look directly if the process is running. Something like: if the identifier retrieves 0 the process is not running if the identifier retrieves 1 the process is running Thanks for all... Last edited by Miguel_A; 29/12/08 12:39 AM.

Code:

alias process {
  .comopen Process WbemScripting.SWbemLocator
  noop $com(Process,ConnectServer,3, dispatch* Win32_Process)
  noop $com(Win32_Process, ExecQuery,3,string,Select * from Win32_Process,dispatch* Win32_Process_Result)
  var %a = $comval(Win32_Process_Result,0)
  set -l $+(%,process,$1)
  while (%a) {
    if ($comval(Win32_Process_Result,%a,Name) == $1) {
  if ($prop == isopen) { var %t 1 | break }
      elseif ($prop == kill) { var %n 1 | noop $comval(Win32_Process_Result,%a,Terminate) | break }
      elseif ($prop == Nb) inc $+(%,process,$1)
    }
    dec %a 
  }
  .comclose process 
  .comclose win32_process 
  .comclose Win32_Process_Result 
  return $iif(%t,$true,$iif(%n,$true,$iif($var(%process*,0),$var(%process*,1).value,$false)))
}

$process(name).isopen return $true/$false
$process(name).kill kill the processus
$process(name).nb return how many processus is open for this name

Both scripts are very nice, and both are working great. My difficulty now is what script should i choose, hehehe Well ... by by and a happy new year to all.
