This would compliment your process functions. At the moment I use the Send Event function of filemaker for this, however you get the unsightly black cmd window popup Send Event ["aevt@ ; "odoc" ; "tskill "Process""] |
This task depends upon

Like the <a href="http://mooplug.com/docs/functions/moo_processkill" title="Moo_ProcessKill">Moo_ProcessKill</a> function that's already in the next release of MooPlug (0.4.7) ?
Great minds think alike!

Can you give an example of the syntax for the process, I have tried it in the new release but yet to get it to terminate anything.
i.e Ive tried
Moo_ProcessKill(calc.exe)
Moo_ProcessKill(calc)
Moo_ProcessKill('calc.exe')
Moo_ProcessKill("calc.exe")
I just keep getting Error > Moo_ProcessKill|Err_2
BTW, incase this may be useful, Im using Vista X64
I a problem using my convential method between OS versions, some required TaskKill whilst others used tskill

Moo_ProcessKill("calc.exe") is all that should be needed.
I've coded this all on XP 32 bit so perhaps I need to take a look at it on Vista.
