Hi, I need a way to check to see if an app is not running before launching the uninstall.  Any suggestions where I can start?  I don't have problem writing a dll that will detect a running app but I don't know where to flag it in the MSI.  Please help.

Thanks,
David

You write a CA in that detects the activity of the app.  This can set a property with MsiSetProperty that can be used in an error CA( type 19) or if you place your dll before LaunchConditions you can specify a condition in the LaunchCondition table.
