easy one - how many instances of a process are running? Keith <kstay1[ at ]nycap.rr.com> 10/16/2008 3:34:15 PM I need a script that will tell me how many instances of a process, in my case excel.exe, are currently running. I need to call the script from our server monitoring app, so a .bat command file should work fine. Anyone?
