How do I locate and kill a process ID?

[Frank T.P.]

An application is lauched using the "Automation Open" VI. In order to close the application, I have to use its ActiveX to shut it down. The problem is the the ActiveX seems unable to exit without crashing. Is there a way I could hunt down the process ID in LabView, and forcefully terminate it?

Thank you.

Hi Frank,

Make sure you are using the _Application Quit method when you want to close the application you are controlling with ActiveX.

Best regards,
