Oh also, would there at least be some kind of code I could use to get
information about an open instance of Excel? What workbook is open,
etc?

Okay. Actually there are a few dozen excel applications being open

all at once of course) and updated through scheduled tasks. I didn't
write them, but am having to contend with the mess that many of them
leave behind. I'm fixing the code in them as I go, but was hoping for
an interim way of closing these open instance of Excel before they
totally hose the memory on the server.
