It does work normally over here. You can check if the window exists by using this code:

HeHe

I been trying all the normal@winactive() normal@winactive(n) CLASS@winactive(c) Identifier@winactive(i) @winexists(), everything.
And I'm using @WINPOS(<window>,S) to get the Window Statis, only thing holding me up is Window close,name Sad

I think it worked once, couple days ago.

Seems like it close a My Computer (CabinetWClass) and IE Windows (IEFrame), even tryed WINDOW Activate,#@winactive(c) etc etc etc .... VDS hates me Laughing

Thanks for trying, I might try doing it from an external homemade VDS EXE.

If you think of anything, please tell me, Thank you... Very Happy

Shouldn't something at least work below, as far as closing a Window?

Your code doesn't work, because you used @winactive(c) which will return the classname, but you still have to put the # in front of it. Also, your code has a lot of strange things, while this will just work too:

Actually if you would have read my code better, you would seen it simply had both ways (CLASS and NORMAL) Your code is same but without the Class test.

Yours don't work here either... sorry Crying or Very sad

OK, still don't work, I tryed putting the # in front of it again...

See if below works for you.

I dunno about VDS 5, but WINDOW CLOSE works fine in VDS 3. Wink

Here's an example - works whether compiled or not
(it does NOT close itself):

Your Exactly right MAC, that don't work either, only thing that WINDOW CLOSE, will close, is a VDS made program, thats sad. Sad

Is there a DLL that will help me with this, This is taking too many days Crying or Very sad

I'm using vds 5 and can close a window. Tried it on the calculator and Excel.

weird vd5 wont close a internet explorer window. I've closed just about any other window without issue. Insane

It would probably be possible via API but I don't know the right function
now. Smile

hmm

I'm wondering if VDS thinks we should know to use Shell on HTML and MyComputer.

My interesting theorys below that don't work Laughing

The parameters for the shell command are the things you see in the contextmenu when you right click a file. I believe you can find all supported commands by opening the registry (regedit.exe) and looking at the extension you want to control in the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT folder... Smile
