BrewManNH Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Did you look at the help file for ProcessList? It returns an array, and in the arrays [0][0] position is the number of processes found that match. The array returned is two-dimensional and is made up as follows: $array[0][0] = Number of processes $array[1][0] = 1st Process name $array[1][1] = 1st Process ID (PID) If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted February 22, 2012 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2012 You should be able to do something like this: $list = ProcessList() $x = 0 For $i = 1 To $list[0][0] If $list[$i][0] = "notepad.exe" Then $x = $x + 1 EndIf Next MsgBox(0, "", $x) "Profanity is the last vestige of the feeble mind.

BrewManNH Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Or you could do this: $PCount = ProcessList("notepad.exe") MsgBox(64, "Count", "Number of notepad processes found = " & $PCount[0][0]) If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted February 22, 2012 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2012 Even better, BrewManNH I was going off his requirement to do If $PCount = $PCount + 1 Then ; Do stuff here End If "Profanity is the last vestige of the feeble mind.

Hyflex Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Hey Guys, You should be able to do something like this: $list = ProcessList() $x = 0 For $i = 1 To $list[0][0] If $list[$i][0] = "notepad.exe" Then $x = $x + 1 EndIf Next MsgBox(0, "", $x)Perfect, thank you I had to change how it works a little but it works flawlessly. Or you could do this: $PCount = ProcessList("notepad.exe") MsgBox(64, "Count", "Number of notepad processes found = " & $PCount[0][0])I was unable to do what I wanted using that however the other guys works perfect. Thank you very much both of you Edited February 23, 2012 by XxXGoD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
