HOW to Kill ActiveX application..

u r right , my activex plugin is causing the problem , if i don't use the activex plugin the app works fine ... How do i dispose the activex plugin , i guess it was not developed properly..

I tried application.extit() method but still it will be there in task manager..

Is there any method to dispose the plugin before closing the app
Pls guide...
Thanks and regards,

Yes i, guess the activex plugin in not .net framework . Plugin is not showing in taskbar , the app won't be there in Task manager > Applications but it will be there in Task manager > Processes ...

I'm using the following way to kill the app

Dim xyz As Process For Each xyz In System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses() If InStr(xyz.ProcessName, "Processone.2.0", CompareMethod.Text) > 0 Then xyz.Kill() End If Next End

Thanks for the solution but this above function works only in visual studio 2005 but not in visual studio 2003.I'm using dispose method to kill the activex plugin it isworking fine in 2005

following is the code in VS2005

Private Sub frmmain_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
xyz.Dispose()
zxy.Dispose()
Application.DoEvents()
Application.Exit()
End Sub

code in visual studio 2003

Private Sub frmmain_Closing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing
xyz.Dispose()
zxy.Dispose()
Application.DoEvents()
Application.Exit()
End Sub

when i use the above code while closing the app i'm getting following error.
The instruction at "0x73dd11c7" referenced merory at ..... . The memory could not be read
Click ok to terminate the program.

is there any difference in code ?
then why isn't working in 2003...
