How do you close IE from VB ?

This could end up being the most stupid question I have ever posted, but here goes .............

If the following line of code opens IE (which it does), how do I then close IE ?

I tried the obvious of duplicating the line and changing "Open" to "Close", but nope.

VB Code:

OpenPage = ShellExecute(Form1.hwnd, "Open", "C:\test.html", 0&, 0&, 0&)

So, am I being dull ?:rolleyes:

I don't think that you are being dull (or if so then that makes 2 of us!)

I think you will need to use the TerminateProcess API but I don't have any sample code handy for this

Hack's post here looks promising!

I found some code eventually, and its simpler, thus :

VB Code:

Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Navigate ("www.btopenworld.com")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.Top = 0
    ie.Left = 0
    ie.Height = 600
    ie.Width = 800
    
    ie.quit
    Set ie = Nothing

Thanks for your help :)

Aah, Nice solution!
