hello,

I have spawned a win32 console app from my vb app, using the shell command in vb. I need to cleanly kill this app from my app, it has to be cleanly shutdown, so it can properly clean up. is this possible? if i hit cntrl-c from the command prompt it works. can this be done from vb?


thanks,

jeremy
