Radimus the FindPROC() solution works fine, but it doesnt give an output.. (my boss keeps changing / adding idears [Smile] )
outlook only needs to close when it wasnt open before..
code:
if outlook = open 
  runscript
  dont close
Else
  start outlook
  run script
  close
endif
this is the idear...

this is radimus' idear but it doesnt have output.. (or im going blind)
is it easy to add or do i need another way?
code:
Function FindPROC($PROC,optional $COMPUTER, optional $terminate)
	Dim $GetObject, $Select
	If NOT $computer	$computer=@wksta	EndIf
	$GetObject="winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!//$COMPUTER"
	$Select="select * from Win32_Process where Name='$PROC'"
	For Each $Process in GetObject("$GetObject").ExecQuery("$select")
		If $terminate		$Process.Terminate	EndIf
		$FindPROC=$Process.ProcessId
		Next
EndFunction
