.

In the Windows XP Resource Kit (i believe there is one for XP?) there should
be a process kill command line tool. If not, there are plenty on the web.
Use the Shell command to execute.

If you need VBA to wait until the Shell has finished, then do a Google
search for ShellWait.

Oddly enough, you might be able to find an API solution to process killing
by looking at examples that are related to ShellWait.
