monitor windows processes

[RB]

Does anyone know how to monitor the existance of a process running in
windows task manager.

Basically I want to start another process only if the previous has finished
and the script runs in windows.

Thanks

You have a couple of choices. The first is to record the pid of that
process somewhere and test whether or not it's running using "kill 0"
(same as Unix).

Your other option is to resort to something like Win32:rocess::Info
or Proc:rocessTable and check for the name of the process.
