Multiple Opening of an Application

[amitp]

I have a vb application where one EXE calls another exe, so that a new application opens. But when i want to open the same application again from the other application it gives an error that the application is already active and the new instance is not opened. I use SHELL function to open the exe. Needs help. Thanks in Advance.

    If App.PrevInstance Then
    msgbox "Already running"
    Unload Me
End sub
