Thank you all for your replies. App.PrevInstance seems
simple enough except the part for restoring if app was
minimized. The example from

http://www.mvps.org/vbvision/

does have a good routine for restoring the minimized app
(and of course for checking for a prevInstance) using
API.

Well, new tools for my toolbox. Thanks all.
