Second instance of app referencing first instance of app?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I've got an application that uses a Mutex to prevent multiple instances of
the application from launching. This works great for me.

However, what I would like to do is when a second attempt to launch the
application is detected, it activates the first instance then closes the
second instance. At app startup, how can I grab a reference to another
instance of my app so that I can signal to it to activate itself?

Cheers, Jon
