If this is visual Basic you need to use SET command with COM objects
Set myAB = CreateObject("Broker.Application")
.....
Set myAB = Nothing

Subject: [amibroker] Broker.exe not going away after I exit the code
> Hi,
>
> In the following visual basic .net code:
> ------------------------------------------
> Private Function CheckDatabase() As Boolean
>
> Dim myAB As Object = Nothing
>
> Try
> myAB = CreateObject("Broker.Application")
> lblDBPath.Text = myAB.DatabasePath.ToString
> myAB = Nothing
> Return True
> Catch ex As Exception
> Return False
> End Try
>
> End Function
> ------------------------------------------
> Now the problem I have is this. Without having Amibroker running, I
> run this code, and I get the database path info I wanted, then I exit
> the program. When I check Task Manager, I find that the Broker.exe
> process is still there. Without using the Quit() method, how do I
> clean up the Broker.exe process? I don't want to use Quit() because if
> Amibroker is running, the Quit() will close Amibroker.
