Hi Everyone,

I am creating an excel file in my vb app. Below is the code I am using to do this. But when the application is closed, I still have an instance of Excel running in the background. How do i close it? I can do it with the xlWBook but not the xlApp. Thanks!

Code:
                'create empty excel file
                xlApp = CType(CreateObject("Excel.Application"), Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application)
                xlWBook = CType(xlApp.Workbooks.Add, Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook)
                xlWSheet = CType(xlWBook.Worksheets(1), Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet)


... do stuff here


            xlWSheet.SaveAs(sFilePath)
            xlWBook.Close()
How do I close to get rid of xlApp?

Thanks!
