You snuck that one in while I was composing the one I just sent.

And I wonder now why I made it so complicated. Duh.

[code]
  Try DBus.Session.Register(Service, "/Service")
  If Error Then
    Message.Error("An instance of " & Application.Name & " already exists.")

  Else
    DBus.Session.Register(Service, "/Service")
  Endif
[/code]
