Determine if another workflow is running

Hi,

 

Is there any way in WF5 for a WF to determine if another WF is already running... (or to list running workflows)?

 

I am trying to get a WF to behave slightly differently if it can know another workflow is already running...

 

Thanks!

  More specifically, I am trying to find out if a workflow can determine if another workflow is in a drawing mode...

  You could have the two workflows communicate to each other using the Set Application Data and Get Application Data activities.

  Eg, have the first workflow set a value when it starts, and either remove or change that value when it finishes or completes a certain step. Then have the second workflow check for that value in order to determine if the other workflow is running.
