Lauching & Terminating Applications from VB

Dave David

Can anyone help me with my code for launching and terminating Netmeeting from VB6. At the moment I can get Netmeeting started but can not gain control over it.

See attached.

PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION
GW_OWNER
GWL_STYLE
WS_DISABLED
WS_CANCELMODE
WM_CLOSE

Can't see a declaration for these. The VB Api Text viewer add on should return everything with perhaps the exception of PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION (PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION = &H400). Declare them with public scope in Module1.bas. Even if this doesn't fix your code you still need them and always use Option Explicit in VB - this requires all variables to be declared or you can't compile.

Private Sub Command2_Click()
    EndTask (hwnd)
End Sub

Where is hwnd declared? (again you need option explicit). I'd assume you want hwnd to be the handle returned from the OpenProcess method. If so take the declaration for hProcess out of Command1_Click and move it to form level.

As a side note its generally good coding practice to give your controls a suitable name so Command1 could be cmdOpenNetMeeting and Command2 could be cmdCloseNetMeeting. Something like that anyway

Thanks Phil I'll try this out.
