Ending VPF program

Question

Hi,

 

Is there a way to end a VPF 9 program, (EXE),  at a given moment regardless of what forms, menus or reports are active without receiving any messages or popups.
Using quit wont work.

 

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You may try to use ESC key, press more times if neccesary. You may also build a small program to "kill" task or use Windows Task Manager....

Answer 2

Hi,

It´s a comercial program, the Esc key is dasbled to avoid that by accident the users abort the program.
The process needs to be inside the VPF programa and be silent an have no user intervention at all.

Answer 3

Then use Task Manager....What is the purpose to "end"  the program.?
