Preventing multuple instances of my windows app

I have figured out how to use $1 to pass the file location from explorer to my app and load the file on openStack, But I have not figured out how to handle a second chosen file. I want the user click the file in explorer and have it replace the first file instead of opening a second instance of my app. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi magice,

check "relaunch" in the dictionary!

Basically you add this (empty) handler to the main stack script
to prevent any other instances of the app:

Code: Select all

on relaunch
  ## Nothing :-)
end relaunch
Best

Thank you Klaus. Relaunch was what I needed to look up.
