I've already read that DaveyM69 has explained to you how to use events/delegates for solving your problem.But sometimes you need to notify other instances of your app for something important.In this case events and delegates are not useful,because you can't get valid pointers of the forms belonging to another instance of the app.In this case you have to use custom WM messages.To register custom WM message call RegisterWindowMessage native function. And to send message call SendMessage native function passing HWND_BROADCAST value for hWnd parameter.But this function doesn't seem to work with child windows,but it works with hidden top windows for example. But be careful with that option-it could damage OS performance.

Worked like a charm! thanks:) Y*Live Long And Prosper*Y

:-D :laugh: That's definitely your follower.

Try System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(Application.StartupPath + @"\Example.exe"); :) -= Reelix =-

Doing that would be user hostile. Would you want your Task Manager to be disabled? I know I wouldn't.

The third answer you got was the right one, I just want to add, this code does not change if you're working on a console app, because it has nothing to do with the presentation part of the program.
