how to get second instance of exe file in W2k

[pawel]

When I build an application into exe, I can run it only once. When I try to run it second time, windows makes the first instance an active one. I would like to have second instance running as well. How to make that?
Shat I make my vi reentrant? Will it help?

thanks in advance

Hi Pawel,

Check out the link below. Yes, I think making the vi re-entrant is the right direction..

Although the link below was for TestStand, it may shed a light to a solution..

Hi

For a quick and dirty solution (and If you want to run only a few instances), making a copy of your exe might work.
