Winclose($handle) don't works for me

[ReFran]

Hi,

I try following

$handle = Run("C:\Programme\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe")

msgbox(0,"",$handle)

;WinClose($handle)

ProcessClose($handle)

ProcessClose works, but WinClose($handle) works not. I want to use WinClose($handle), because that

- doesn't close Reader during printig (ProcessClose close also during printing)

- and allow to handle different instances of Reader.

I'm doing something wrong or why it doesn't work?

Best regards, Reinhard

Oops -- Run returns the PID, not the window handle of the started process.

Once you have the PID, you can find the window. Search the forums -- there are already functions written to do that using WinList () and WinGetProcess.

I see, mixed it up.

So WinGetHandle seems to be the only possibility to get the $handle, also if the PID is given.

Thank you, Reinhard
