Thanks I trying use search befor and after post my Q
and couldn foun answer to my Q :( maybe I read careless
I try agayn
Thanks

heres how i do it.
add this to your Link when you compile.
/section:share,rws
in your .asm

share segment

	AppInit dd 0

share ends



startupcodex proc

	cmp AppInit,1; if its 1 then a program has already loaded

	je @F; jmp is its equ

	mov AppInit,1;else its 0 and we mov 1 into it

	jmp endFFFF;return to code

	@@:

	invoke ExitProcess,0;end

	endFFFF:

ret

startupcodex endp

if you mean you want your prog to execute a nother proc, well make a nother dd in the share seg, have that 2nd app check it for a number 1, if it matches, then call,... but i dont know exactly what u want...

c'mon give the man a break, hes only 15posts!

This below is search result that I get using you keywords "single instance" maybe I push wrong button Sorry then but below i nothing that I looking for
