I have a backup &amp;&nbsp;update procudeure that I run which starts off with an external VB6 application copying / remaning a new databse into the databse directory and then launching the new databse to start the data transfer. I need to know if there is code that I can, on load or completion of data transfer to the new databse, close the external VB6 application?<br />
