I just complete (for time been) a testy using the QuitApp demonstration. It appears that the RELEASE WINDOWS function as expected (closing the preview window) when performed in a simple PRG. But raises a "Cannot quit foxpro" error if in a APP or EXE. Are you seeing the same thing?

I have tried the RELEASE WINDOWS method, and attempting to send a Escape (using both Fox and WScript. Neither one worked. If I had the Window handle to the Preview window, perhaps it could be killed directly.

I will continue investigating this from time to time. Let me know if you come up anything close.
