I can only speak from logic, not coding experience, but it seems to me that you would need to close the Form you created in a process before you kill the process.

whats the error?

EvilGrin369 · 12-12-2006, 06:32 PM

after the close button is clicked once the second time it's clicked and the process is shut down the error is "No process is associated with this object" it close's the process but if it's clicked again it give the error.

You could put the Notepad.Kill() inside a try{} catch{} or Im sure there is a method for testing if the process is currently active (dont know for sure, just a guess) and just stick it in a if then statement like

Code:

if (process.Running())
process.Kill();

Cause it sounds like the way you have it, you kill the process once by clicking it. Then when you click it again, it isnt running, so its impossible to kill it (thus the error you are getting).

You could try spelling Notepad correctly.

He said he was using a Form, so I concluded that his Form name was Notpad so as not to be confused with Notepad the program.

concluded = assumed; we are not sure if it is the real name of the Form or not. It may be; I may be wrong. But if not, he should probably start using proper names for things or specify what he means by what he says.

Well if it works the first time he pushes the button, then he has it spelled the way it needs to be...

Malaperth · 12-13-2006, 01:20 PM

Well, it is definitely the name of the process, or it would not compile...
