Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, it was not as simple as you suggested but you put us on the correct path. The solution in the end was :

DECLARE ExitProcess IN ('kernel32') LONG lngERRNO


? 'this program returns 1 to errorlevel'
? 'waiting for 60 seconds'
=inkey(60)
=ExitProcess (1)

Thanks for you help
