>>>WinXP won't "turn off" whenever my VFP7 CM7 application is running. I mean, all forms might be closed at the moment, nothing is waiting anything, the application is only there, whether minimized or not. If there is an attempt to turn WinXP off, the application will be closed, but windows will stop there and stay alive, then it's necessary to switch Windows off again, and it will work.

>>>OK, why on earth is this a problem, right ? Just close the application before switching WinXP off ... That would be fine if the windows user were the one doing it, but in my case, this is done remotely, there's no one sitting on the desk at the time WinXP is ordered to switch off.
