1. Suspending a program in Win32Lib.

Here is basically what I am trying to do:
button_onClick(int self, int event, seq params)
Execute_Some_Program()
while program_is_still_running do
doEvents(0)
end while
restart(0)
end procedure
Any ideas on how to do 'program_is_still_running' using ShellExecute and
ShellExecuteEx calls?
Btw, a virtual cookie to the first person who guesses why I want to do this! :)
Thx,

Use a flag file.
while flagFileExists do
doEvents(0)
end while

That would work, if the second program was open source. It isn't.

there's code somewhere already in the archive where you can get the handle of
a running window by it's title. I wrote a small switching app based on it
that swaps between differnt Internet explorer screens every ten seconds.
Greg Haberek - Apr 7/03 "Monitor all windows"
and I think
PatRat - Jun 25/01 "Window Finding functions"
I have some command line exe's to find running windows and kill them.

My program is based on PatRat's library. I just made a working demo of
it. It doesn't auto-refresh, although it should. Its a handy little
app for finding rouge windows or tracking down viruses.
