TheSaint 1,501 Posted November 27, 2015 Very good!If I remember correctly, guinness also wrote some code, for when a program is already running, but minimized and forgotten, so that when you try to start it again, rather than create another instance or fail, it brings the first instance to the fore again.I've also created code to have it query closure of the first instance instead of fail, and have the second instance as replacement.Could be good to add them to your UDF, along with the internal ID to avoid the issue guinness mentioned.
