How can I find the amount of memory that a running process uses? It
can probably be done with API but I'm not sure how to approach this one.

Thanks in advance for any help. Very Happy

You could look into the process status API (psAPI) which has functions to do this!

I've been using psAPI in a DLL that I've been fiddling with - if you need it let me know and I guess it shouldn't
be too difficult to add a process memory usage function in there too.

Oh, I forgot to add in that psAPI is for NT based systems only...

Thanks for the tip - I think I'll look into that. Smile

I think in win 9x there are not much restrictions on memory and Tool help APIs are available from User32.dll
