Cancel shell command

[mart37]

If i created a shell command that call a batch file, and that batch file is composed of command that copy data on a cd, is there a way , while the process is running, to cancel the process of your batch file(Shell) i know in dos, it's the CTL-BREAK, but how can i send that to my process using VB.

Shell() is asynchronous so once you've said "shell this" it's done and you can't interact (very easily) with it.

Notice that the return value of Shell() is a long...that's the process ID, so you may be able to use that to try to kill it...

Good luck!
