This invention relates to a method for monitoring an executed process, more particularly for monitoring and tracing the execution of an application program on a window-based operating platform. The method of the present invention is first to collect the information of all executed processes, and then to build up a history table of all processes for finding out the main process of the execution of the application program. Next, according to the processes' handles saved in the history table, the monitoring method is to extract all sub-processes of the main process and construct the relation of all processes of the execution of the application program. Finally, hierarchically trace and monitor all executed processes of the application program.
