Closing a program which was opened with shellexecute
 
Good morning ,

I use the following code to open another program - does anybody the
corresponding code to close it again? Would really be most grateful
for any help - I've been looking for ages . . .

Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias
"ShellExecuteA" _
(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As
String, _
ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal
nShowCmd _
As Long) As Long

Sub openProg()
Dim URL As String
URL = "C:\Program Files\....exe"
Call ShellExecute(0&, vbNullString, URL, vbNullString,
vbNullString, vbNormalFocus)

End Sub

Thanks very much in advance for any help you may be able to give.

Hi JonT,

How about something like......................

Application.Quit

...........you may have to qualify the application.

Regards

Michael
