Jim,
Actually, I'd never assume that PROGMAN was running. Before using SendKeys,
I would always run the program in question, check to make sure it was
running….THEN use SendKeys. PROGMAN is always available, unless some
fool deleted it after installing Norton Desktop or some other
memory-hogging Windows shell program. All you have to do is Shell up the
program you want to use.
Still, you're absolutely right about not assuming anything about the user's
environment. For that reason, I choose not to distribute an installation
program with my applications. Rather, I provide step by step instructions
for manual installation.
George
