Hi Mathias, Hi Andreas, thanks for your great help! After making some tests, i agree that terminating the office is the wrong way in this case... i haven't taken this 'side effect' into consideration. Now i have to start over. I won't annoy you, but let me once again get back to my initial question: if the last document was closed (via File-Close or the second, smaller window closer), is there any possibility to close the StartModule via the java app, i.e. to simulate a additional File-Close operation to make this window invisible? Once again thanks in advance!
