Trouver si une application est actuellement active.

(Q) Comment savoir si Excel ou Word n'est pas déjà en cour d'exécution?

(A) Vous pouvez utiliser  fIsAppRunning pour vérifier si une application est actuellement en cours d'exécution, en arrière plan. Passer simplement le nom de l'application à cette fonction. Un argument optionel permet d'activer (focus) cette application (valeur True). Ainsi, pour activer (focus) Word si Word est déjà en exécution, essayer, depuis la fenêtre d'exécution immédiate (Debug Window):

?fIsAppRunning("Word",True)

Seulement pour savoir si Word est en cours d'exécution ou non, utiliser plutôt:

?fIsAppRunning("word")

Note: Ajouter le nom des classes Windows à la structure du SELECT CASE pour personnaliser la fonctionnalité aux applications désirées.
