    [solved]Problem with terminating process

    I use the following classfile to enum windows processes (see attached), but i cant find a way to teminate a process. i Tried to kill it by ProcessID (th32ProcessID) with the TerminateProcess api, but no succes. Anyone got an idea of what i am doing wrong?

    Or got an exaple how to terminate applications, with this class file?

    Nevermind, found it:

    VB Code:
    1. Dim hProcess As Long, lExitCode As Long

    2.     hProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_TERMINATE, False, Split(List1.Text, " - ")(0))

    3.     Call TerminateProcess(hProcess, lExitCode)

    4.     Call CloseHandle(hProcess)

    5.     Text1.Text = hProcess

    Running on a win98 machine, the processid's appear as negative numbers. Is this OK???? I would assume the values from the processid are being shown as negative values because of some buffer overflow, but could be wrong.

    Any ideas???
