Problem with OLE and Microsoft Word

[driessen]

Hello,

I did this test:

Code: Select all  Expand view

oWord := TOleAuto():New("Word.Application")
oWord:Quit()
oWord:= NIL

oWord := TOleAuto():New("Word.Application")
oWord:Quit()
oWord:= NIL

oWord := TOleAuto():New("Word.Application")
oWord:Quit()
oWord:= NIL

I wanted to test the speed by which Word is opened and closed by using OLE.

After the Quit-command, it lasts at least 10 to 15 seconds before Word is effectivily closed.

What can be down to make this process much quicker?

Thank you very much for any advice.

You can find the process in Word memory (via WMI) as "OpusApp" and delete it
oProcess:Terminate()

Sorry, I don't have any experience with this. Can you please provide me with an example? Thanks.

Something like this

Code: Select all  Expand view

procedure KillProcess()
local st
local oWmi:=WmiService(), oList, oProc
private dim:={"WINWORD.EXE", "OpusApp", {}}

  EnumChildWindows( 0, ;
      { | hCt, nLParam | L_Tsk(hCt) }, 0 ) // optional supplied value

  for st=1 to len(dim)
    oList:= oWmi:ExecQuery( "select * from Win32_Process where Name = '" + ;
                                                          dim[st,1] + "'" )

    for each oProc in oList // list of processes
        oProc:Terminate()
    next
  next
return nil

Function L_Tsk(hWn) && CALLBACK of EnumChildWindows
local fl
** hWn - handle of window 

    fl:=ascan(dim, {|xx|xx[2]=GetClassName(hWn)})
    if fl>0 // this is the desired process 
      aadd(dim[fl,3], {GetWindowProcessID(hWn), hWn})
    endif
return .T.

      return .f.

   SETFOREGROUNDWINDOW( FINDWINDOW( "OpusApp" ) )

Guy,s

Thank you so much for your help.

I know what to do this weekend. Testing, testing, testing.

Happy Eastern to you all.

Maybe, I didn't check, you can try

oWrd:=GetActiveObject(...
....................
SendMessage(oWrd:hWnd, VM_CLOSE)
