I have an app which uses an external monitor to display data from another vfp app
I created a project with a simple startup prg and a form and compiled it as an exe.
then in my regular vfp app I do a run /n external.exe which works but when the regular app ends the called external app remains on the external monitor. then next time tha app starts it creates another external app and so forth

I need to kill the external app somehow. Or better yet call it with create or newobject

in order to accomplish this I used the object browser to convert the scx into a prg but that prg has errors in it when it comes to the grid definitions.

how could I accomplish this?

Thanks

here is my startup prg:
DEFINE CLASS xStart AS SESSION OLEPUBLIC


PROCEDURE INIT


DO FORM EXTERNAL\ExternalForm
READ EVENTS
IF VERSION(2)=0
QUIT
ELSE
WAIT WINDOW "Good Bye"
ENDIF
ENDPROC

PROCEDURE DESTROY

ENDPROC

PROCEDURE ERROR(nError,cMethod,nline)

ENDPROC

ENDDEFINE
