Found the following example...http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/system.diagnostics.process.exited.aspx

Cant work out how the process in this example knows to call myProcess_Exited when its finished. How do I add this event handler to my code?

And your idea with enum's....is that a better way than in the example above ?

I was thinking my code would become
[code]
ConvertProcess.StartInfo.FileName = BurnerFilesPath + "mpgtx.exe";
ConvertProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "-f -d \"" + FilePathsToBurn[i] + "\" -b \"" + strTempFolder + "\\" + FileNamesToBurn[i] + "\" ";

ConvertProcess.Start();
//ConvertProcess.WaitForExit();

while (!eventHandled)
{
Thread.Sleep(SLEEP_AMOUNT);
}[/code]

and eventHandled would be set in

[code] private void myProcess_Exited(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
eventHandled = true;
}[/code]

but it never calls this in my code so I get stuck in a forever loop.

Any ideas?

Cheers for all your help on this one !
