Control to open the multiple application (EXE)

[GCK]

Hi,

Need some assistance as following :

If let say i would like to control / restric the user to
open multiple of a single program, how should i go about
it ?

(example : After i have already open one of the
application (Ms Word - Winword.exe) on my PC, when the
second time i have click on the same shortcut icon again,
it will not open up the new Word application, however it
will maximize the existing Word application which is
opened earlier on.)

Thanks
..

This behaviour is controlled by the application actually and not by
Windows. Some programs provide a setting to change this, others don't.
So check the options dialogs and the help files for the applications
for which you want to adjust this.
