I've used PSKILL from "www,sysinternals.com" for years to kill a running process when necessary. You can kill a process/program by either using the program name or Process ID. However, I have a program that shows no process ID in the Task Manager and it will not kill using the name. In the Task Manager, the PID column is blank. The "Image Name" column shows tthe processname (but it has an odd blank intention - a single space - in front of the name). I can kill it interactively using the Task Manager but I need a way to kill it programmically.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Robert
