------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Jul 9 15:55:23 -0700 2005 ------- >From Delphi 7 Language, I use the next well know routine for call external programs an wait for terminate it. function WinExecAndWait32(FileName: string; Visibility: Integer): dWord; var zAppName: array[0..512] of Char; zCurDir: array[0..255] of Char; WorkDir: string; StartupInfo: TStartupInfo; ProcessInfo: TProcessInformation; begin StrPCopy(zAppName, FileName); GetDir(0, WorkDir); StrPCopy(zCurDir, WorkDir); FillChar(StartupInfo, Sizeof(StartupInfo), #0); StartupInfo.cb := Sizeof(StartupInfo); StartupInfo.dwFlags := STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW; StartupInfo.wShowWindow := Visibility; if not CreateProcess(nil, zAppName, { pointer to command line string } nil, { pointer to process security attributes } nil, { pointer to thread security attributes } false, { handle inheritance flag } CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE or { creation flags } NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, nil, { pointer to new environment block } nil, { pointer to current directory name } StartupInfo, { pointer to STARTUPINFO } ProcessInfo) then Result := -1 { pointer to PROCESS_INF } else begin WaitforSingleObject(ProcessInfo.hProcess, INFINITE); GetExitCodeProcess(ProcessInfo.hProcess, Result); CloseHandle(ProcessInfo.hProcess); CloseHandle(ProcessInfo.hThread); end; end; With any one application it works well. In a debug session I can see that the step by step execution stops in WaitforSingleObject instruction and continue when I close the external program. The problem is that with OpenOffice, executable starts well but they ignore the WaitforSingleObject an continue, OpenOffice are open and my application continues. They don't wait for OpenOffice execution end. :( I tested a lot of programs and I see that only OpenOffice fails. I need it for integration projects.
