I want to close all running excel programs with x++

I found some code with dll but wasn’t able to make it work

#WinAPI

#DEFINE.STATUS_TIMEOUT(0x00000102)

Dll kernel32 = new Dll(“kernel32.dll”);

DllFunction createProcess = new DllFunction(kernel32, “CreateProcessA”);

DllFunction waitForSingleObject = new DllFunction(kernel32, “WaitForSingleObject”);

DllFunction closeHandle = new DllFunction(kernel32, “CloseHandle”);

DllFunction terminateProcess = new DllFunction(kernel32, “TerminateProcess”);

Binary strartupInformation = new binary(68);

Binary processInformation = new binary(16);

Someone have a solution to kill all running excel process?

I would use .NET Interop - it’s much easier to use. Take a look at GetProcessesByName() and Kill() methods of the System.Diagnostics.Process class.

Thanks again Martin,

Could you write me down a the code in x++. Because im just starting to learn ax2012, I used to work with Axapta v3.

Lets say the complete code to close all Excel open in windows tasks manager.

You can use something like this, but it’s up to you to adjust it as needed in your case:

System.Collections.IEnumerable processes;
System.Collections.IEnumerator enumerator;
System.Diagnostics.Process process;
    
try
{
    processes = System.Diagnostics.Process::GetProcessesByName("EXCEL");
    enumerator = processes.GetEnumerator();
    
    while (enumerator.MoveNext())
    {
        process = enumerator.get_Current();
        process.Kill();
    }
}
catch (Exception::CLRError)
{
    throw error(AifUtil::getClrErrorMessage());
}

Nice one!
