Multiple executions of an application?

I've built an application using LabVIEW 8.20 proessional.  One of my users has complained that he can't open it multiple times, as you can with say Internet Explorer.  It's a utility app - there shouldn't be any issues with running multiple instances (or if there are any then I should be able to find ways around them).  This ability would be really useful.
 
Is it possible to build an app in such a way that you can click its shortcut a second or third time and open another instance of it?
 
Thanks
-Sean.

Try adding the line AllowMultipleInstances=True in your app's INI file under the [exe name] section (create it if it does not exist). It worked in previous versions and I assume it still should.
