Re: Stopping background script

Dave,

> How can I locate and stop the script?

If stopping the script is all you're out for, than you could have it create 
a dummy file (in the temp folder?) and have it regulary check if its still 
there.  If not, terminate.

That way the only thing you need to do is to delete that dummy file ...

Though I agree with the other posters that having a program handy by which 
you can actually find the program which is running the script is 
preferrable.

... just don't run the same script twice. :-)

Rudy Wieser
