Error changes to "Property CANCEL not found"

>.object.cancel()

On to something here - this locks up the program until I kill the underlying EXE with task manager. Ordinarily, any invocation of the 3 ActiveX controls associated with this program keep a copy of the EXE running in memory even after I exit VFP, I haven't figured out a way to clear it programmatically, these are visual ActiveX controls dropped on a form, not instantiated programatically where I could just set the object variable to .NULL.

>.object.application.cancel()

This returns a totally different error complaining about APPLICATION.
