Sorry for this VFP post
I'm working with a very old application where the client absolutely
wanted
to create/edit their invoices per a Word file (doc)
So my app opens a word document with ShellExecute, and stores the
details
per routine
Append General rtfgen From &thefile Link
(where thefile may be something like INV4567.DOC)
I would probably do it differently now, but this never caused me any
problems until we upgraded some pc's at client site.
The messages we were getting all related to the
"document is in use by another application and cannot be accessed"
After much trial and error, it now seems
1 This only happens with 64 bit Windows
2 It only seems to happen after we print or preview the invoice
Using Task Manager, there are 1 or more instances of Word open on the pc
I thought of a quick fix.......
I created killword.prg as follows
PARAMETERS whatprg
lcProcess=UPPER(whatprg+".EXE")
lcComputer = "."
loWMIService = GETOBJECT("winmgmts:" +
"{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" + lcComputer + "\root\cimv2")
colProcessList = loWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_Process")
IF TYPE('colProcessList') = "O"
FOR EACH loProcess IN colProcessList
IF ALLTRIM(UPPER(loProcess.NAME)) == lcProcess OR
AT(lcProcess,UPPER(loProcess.NAME))>0
loProcess.TERMINATE()
ENDIF
NEXT
ENDIF && IF TYPE('colProcessList') = "O"
RELEASE colProcessList, loWMIService
But, it doesn't kill Word on a 64 bit pc
Can anyone help me, PLEASE
Are you certain the terminate line is being called?
