It is very simple to understand the programming i have done in this example.

	
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        If Process.GetProcessesByName(Process.GetCurrentProcess.ProcessName).Length() > 1 Then
            MsgBox("This is a Single instance Applicaton " & vbNewLine & "* Another Instance is Already Running", MsgBoxStyle.OKOnly, "Single Instance Application")
            End
        End If
    End Sub
