Delete a window from display 1

[omegabeta]

Hi,

In my script I made a copy operation but at the end I want the window to be deleted from display. I've tried with exit but it doesn't work.

oShell.run "cmd /k copy " & Source & "*.txt " & Dest,5
oShell.run "cmd /k exit"

Can someone tell me haw can I solve the problem ?

Thanks in advance

Remove the /k switch from your cmd call. Use /c instead.

Hello omegabeta,

Methods are often one of these (not together):
[1] Put the instructions in a bat. Run the link of the bat where window close after finish checkbox is checked and host the application with cmd /k.
or
[2] Put the instructions in a bat and adding three lines at the end:

    cls
    @echo off
    exit

and then .run the batch file.
or
[3] After the .run on the batch file, make another .run with the utility kill.exe coming from the resource kit or equivalence with

oShell.run "kill /f winoa386.mod"
