WinActive not detecting title?

Recommended Posts

What am I missing here? The 1st time I launch the program, it's fine. The 2nd time, I was thinking it would detect the app running and prevent it frm running, yet it doesn't?

I'm thinking it's for GUIs in the main program, not a seperate one?? If so, how can I correct it? I do not want to run 2 instances of the same program.

Thanks

$AppTitle="Shortcut"

If WinActive($AppTitle) Then
    MsgBox(0, "", "Window active")
    Exit
EndIf

...

GUICreate($AppTitle,400, 400, 193, 125)

...

Intsead of WInActive I would use WinExists, the window might not be active even though it exists. Then again I would use Singleton in misc.au3.
Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.
