ExcelBanter - The old application.quit problem

I have a similar problem to this.
I've writen some code in Access which extracts,
manipulates and then ouputs the data to a user selected
workbook.

I create a single instance of an Excel Application object
and pass it to every routine that requires it.

Everything runs well and my output is correct. The only
problem I'm getting is that Excel is still under
the 'Processes' in Task Manager. This is a problem
because when I run the code again, it will stop at the
following routine.

Public Sub formatWorkbook(ByRef XL As Excel.Application,
ByVal strRangeName As String, _
ByRef FormatRange As Excel.Range)
'Copies format of named range to selection
XL.Goto (strRangeName)
If (Selection.Row = FormatRange.Row) Then
Exit Sub
End If

sht.Cells(1, 1).Select
XL.Goto (strRangeName)
Selection.Copy
FormatRange.Select
FormatRange.PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats, , False, False
XL.ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1).Select
End Sub

Specifically at "Selection.Row"

Please Help
Thanks

Hello,

I'm totally lost. I've been searching through these
forums and the
internet for an answer, but I can't solve this problem.
I have a splash
screen (userform) from which users can open different
forms in my
application. The splash screen also has a quit button
which is supposed
to close Excel down, but it still apperas in the task
manager.

From what I've read, I think I understand the problem,
but I have no
idea how to solve it. I'm not creating new instances in
my code? Not
sure if I should? Anyway, I'll give a brief explanation
of what I'm
doing:

I have 1 workbook with 3 sheets. I have a userform
acting as a splash
screen. The first thing I do when someone opens my xls
file is (code
for ThisWorkbook):

Code:
--------------------
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.Visible = False
frmSplash.Show
End Sub

--------------------

On my splash screen, I have a quit button with the
following code:

Code:
--------------------
Private Sub btnQuit_Click()
For Each w In Application.Workbooks
w.Close False
Next w
Workbooks(1).Saved = True
ThisWorkbook.Close False
Application.Quit
--------------------

Clicking this still leaves the Excel process running.
Can someone
please point me in the right direction?

Thankyou in advance.
