How can i close another program(exe)using vb application?

If you know the Window Handle (hWnd) of that window, then you can do something like this:

Code:

---

Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long
Private Const WM_DESTROY = &H2


Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim lHwnd As Long
   
    'lHwnd should be your hWnd of the program you want to close
    Call SendMessage(lHwnd, WM_DESTROY, 0, 0)
End Sub
