I know how you can do it on a Mac, but not Windows... Pretty much anything is scriptable on a Mac, so you could do: tell application "FileMaker Pro" quit end tell Of course that doesn't help a whole lot if you aren't on a Mac, eh? :-) You could probably do something with ActiveX or something... I'm sure there is some sort of function to quit a running application (but I don't know what it is). - Shawn ------------------------------- Shawn D.
