Tricks801: Is this still open? Where did you get with this?

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a program that acts as a scheduler. It is possible to open mutliple instances of this program on the same machine (several people can edit the different schedules at one time ). Only one program however should be acting as the scheduler. <br />
<br />
When an instance of the program is started I want it to check for other instances<br />
- if there are no other instances then it should become the scheduler <br />
<br />
When an instance of the program closes and it is the scheduler, it needs to look for another instance and tell that instance to become the scheduler. <br />
<br />
Also, the apps will be running on a terminal server by different users. <br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks

Communication between 2 instances of the same program

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
