    knowing running application in Windows XP

    Hi ,

    I am new to VB.
    I am using windows xp, Visual basic 6.0 version.
    I want to know application name & details running in windows currently.
    example if i run outlook, i want to check outlook is running or not, and i want to know how much processing time & memory it is taking.

    pls can any one guide me how to do this thing.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you search the web (and possibly TheScripts) you will find lots of information. You just have to know the right terms. This is referred to as enumerating the running applications, or tasks, or processes (or windows, I expect). I just did a quick Google search for "vb enumerate applications" and found quite a few links (about 293,000). One which looks promising is enumerate Win32 processes from VB.
