That would be great! One thing I would do is subtract the memory that I know the app uses (around 6MB). I have no idea how to check the memory of an app though. I'm really just a novice programmer. If I did figure it out I probably would end up writing something that uses the same methods as Task Manager. Hmm, I just looked in the C++ help. Would I use GetProcessHeap and then HeapSize? It doesn't say if that is the app's total physical memory usage.
