Hi,

this code works fine on WinXP:

Process proc=Process.Start(@"C:\test.doc");
log("procName="+proc.ProcessName);
proc.WaitForExit();
log("has exited");


provided no Word process is running yet (if there is, proc is null as per MSDN documentation).

PS: I do not use any Office Assistant, I have thrown it out long ago.
IIRC there is a small app that "helps" in launching Office components, if that were to intercept
the doc extension and then launch WinWord on its own, you would not get winword in procName;
you could fix that by explicitly starting winword, with the doc name as an argument tho).

Smile | :)
