My main application starts a second exe that remains running all the time.
When the main application closes, the secondary exe should close automatically. Is there an elegant way to do this?


I have used Ed Rauh class (File #9477) to launch the secondary FoxPro exe. It can be closed with his KillProc(), which runs TerminateProcess. That works, but Ed had a note in his class that says this does not shut down in an orderly fashion; it should only be used for emergencies!

So the question is: how does one close the secondary exe in an orderly fashion?
