Here's what I'm trying to accomplish; is there a more elegant way to do this?
Do you care which one? VS 2003 and 2005 are both devenv.exe and could
both be running.
I'm also curious why you care - this might be one of those cases where
describing what you want to achieve is more useful than asking how to
implement your solution.

Off the top of my head you could schedule a Custom Action to run before

could have a:

DEVENV_RUNNING
I haven't tested this, but it seems like it would work.

The problem with that is when the Reset event is called, it sets PIDKEY back
