Hi Ivan,

You may want to look into this thread Re: API Function to detect and close a program? Thread #68236 Message #68400, though it doesn't provide an answer, just some ideas for thought. I'm continuing to research the problem meantime, because you raised my curiousity... < g >

>>>I see, Nadya ... it's a good idea, I've even run into "Shutting down Windows from inside VFP app" while trying to find an answer around here.
>>>
>>>One little question, if you don't mind ... is there a way to know if the app shutdown was caused by Windows shutdown ?
>>>
>>That's the hardest part, I think :) I haven't researched this problem yet, though. The simple (but may be not since you're in the framework) way would be to know, when a USER closes the application and assume, that all other cases are caused by Windows Shutdown.

>>That's the first idea which comes to mind, see, if you can work from it, otherwise I'll run a research on the problem...
