Does this work even when excel does not have an active window actually open (IE when excel is being used by BWS)

Happy spring! Does anyone have a method to check running processes to see if a particular application is running? I've got several scheduled scripts that utilize the same spreadsheet for input data. I would like to, when the script starts, check to see if excel.exe is already in the list of running processes and then take action dependent upon the results of that query. Action 1 if excel is already running, action 2 if it is not.
