Okay, I understand now, thanks very much.

The Quercus Rexx library is $50. For $50 I'd rather run PSTAT /C and
parse the output to get the PID. I can still use your looping concept.
Legally it would be $100 because I'd need the Quercus library on two
different machines.

I'm a little worried about finding "the wrong PID" since these CMDs will
run at startup along with a bunch of other things. I would have to make
sure that none of the CMDs started any other CMDs; if they did, any PID
which I get might be the wrong one.

Thanks again, Harry.
