I cannot get Excel 2010 to close by using VB on my Windows XP computer at work. I have what I thought would be able to close it, but it doesn't. I do not get any errors, it its just that after multiple times of the code running, I have multiple instances of EXCEL.EXE running in the task manager, which causes problems. I am going to post the code below:
Option Strict Off
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel

I have developed a VB.Net code for retrieving data from excel file .I load this data in one form and update it back in excel after making necessary modifications in data. This complete flow works fine but most of the times I have observed that even if I close the form; the already loaded excel process does not get closed properly. I tried all possible ways to close it but could not be able to resolve the issue.
Find below code which I am using for connecting to excel and let me know if any other approach I may need to follow to resolve this issue. Note: I do not want to kill the excel process as it will kill other instances of the excel

Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked.

View 1 RepliesI'm currently in the process of building a text editor type program, and have run into a brick wall. I haven't done VB in years, so I may just need a little reminder on some things. I have coded everything so far as far as opening files, saving them, changing fonts, colors, etc. However, I'm looking to add a Close button to my menu strip that will just close the currently opened file, and not the entire program, while also ask the user if he/she would like to save before closing the file, and then if they select yes, it will show the save dialog, and if not, it will go ahead and close the currently opened item.
