Send it a WM_CLOSE message.

Use a big hammer.
BTW how do you know that process A was effectively terminated?

Hi,
I am writing an application in VC6 that has a database, which needs to be updated periodically. The database is going to be .mdb, using DAO to interact with the program (I know this is supposed to be obsolete, but... i like it).
To do this, I plan to get the program to connect to a web server where the new database is hosted, download it and replace the old one that is on the user’s computer.
Please can you tell me if my approach is correct? Or, is there a better way to do this?
How do MS Office, Adobe, win XP… etc update their programs?
Thanks

Tara14 r, is there a better way to do this?
Can't you just connect directly to the database on the remote machine?
You might consider fixing your user id. The <font> tag is messing replies up.

I guess for that, the user would need to be connected to the internet to work with the program. I don't want it that way. Bacically, I just need to update the prices of items in the database.
Something like : User selects "Update price list" item in the program's menu - a dialog appears saying 'connecting...' - on establishing a connecting dialog says 'Updateing pirces..' and closes.
Thanks,
Tara

So the machines are not on the same intranet? If not, then FTP should be a viable solution.

No, they are not. The program will be deployed on the users personal computer and the database that will be manually modified/updated by the company will be hosted on its webserver.
Just curious: how does our operating system (win XP) automatically connect to the net and download updates? What protocal does it use?
Thanks,
Tara

Then you have no way of knowing if FTP will be blocked by any firewalls. HTTP might be a better choice and in some cases you could even run into an HTTPS only implementation.

Then why is the subject line of your post "FTP"?

Maybe that's the protocol he wanted to use to download the database file.

Thats right. I assumed that in order to do what I am trying to, using FTP is the correct way.

Ouch, guess I picked a bad day to stop smoking crack. Thought I was back in the days when they were all separate servers :->

I want to know the second parameter of RegSetValueEx() to to access (default) key in a particular registry entry.
Thanx in advance !

Per MSDN:
If lpValueName is NULL or an empty string, "", the function sets the type and data for the key's unnamed or default value.
