I have a situation where I use an external application that runs performance models and the results are stored on an external database. I am SCONNECTed to the external database and I have a form that is used to generate reports from the external database. I start the form as an MDI form and then LAUNCH the external application so they run side bay side; so far so good. Now, to exit the process I need to close the external application and the MDI form individually. I would like to have a way to close both processes in one step What I need is a way to monitor when the external application is closed and then close the MDI form If I close the MDI form first, I can always use the DOS/Windows Taskkill command from a .BAT file and force the external application to close. I would prefer to check if the external application is still running ,and if it is, then use the Taskkill command. I know there has been a number of new commands added in the last couple of years and maybe there is one to check if an external program is running. Makes sense? Any ideas on a better way to do this?
