Kill Process in Navision

lhtirol

Hello,

I have a little problem. When an excel export does not finish successfully I see the Excel process in the taskmgr.
After error correction I start the excel export again (same file). Then I got the error that the file is write-protected.

So I want to kill all excel processes before exporting o Excel.

Any ideas?

It's not neat, but the following might do the trick.

SHELL('C:\windows\system32\taskkill.exe', '/IM notepad.exe');

This might give you a "Do you want to save this..." popup, alternative you could use /F instead of /IM.

Thanks for your hint.

Unfortunately it does not work although taskkill syntax is correct.

But the solution is simple:
Run the taskkill via CMD.exe

SHELL('C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe', '/c', 'TASKKILL /F /IM EXCEL.EXE /T');

Kind Regards
