Default Detecting Applications Run using Excel

Hi,

Is there a way to detect thru' VBA code which applications were run (started) on the computer along with the date & time logged in & what time these applications were closed.

If the applications are downloaded from a server, thru' a server connectivity page, is it possible to detect these applications Start & Termination times.

Rgds,

Eijaz

Hi
don't do this in Excel/VBA :-)
Excel has to run all time (and macros have to be enabled) to log these
events. There're several freeware/shareware programs available who will
just do this (try searching Google or a shareware download site)

Hi,

That's exactly what i want the worksheet to do as i have limited resources
available at my workplace. cannot use any internet freeware/shareware
program because of firewall & company policy against internet access.

I just want the workbook to register the names of applications started/Ended
along with the Start/End Date & Time. That's all it will do!
But is it possible & HOW?

Rgds,

Eijaz
