Private Declare PtrSafe Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Private Declare PtrSafe Function GetClassName Lib "user32" Alias "GetClassNameA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal nMaxCount As Long) As Long
Private Declare PtrSafe Function GetWindowText Lib "user32" Alias "GetWindowTextA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpString As String, ByVal cch As Long) As Long
Declare PtrSafe Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long
'Declare PtrSafe Function GetWindowThreadProcessId Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, lpdwProcessId As Long) As Long
Public Sub Kill_APPs()


[B]Call Kill_Task("*.xls*")' excel[/B]
[COLOR=#008000]' Call Kill_Task("*.txt*")' Notepad
' Call Kill_Task("*.docx*")' Word[/COLOR]


End Sub


Sub Kill_Task(Optional Title = "*", Optional Class = "*")


    Dim proc As Object
    
    Dim hWndThis As Long
    Const WM_SYSCOMMAND = &H112
    Const SC_CLOSE = &HF060
    hWndThis = FindWindow(vbNullString, vbNullString)
    While hWndThis
    PID = ""
        Dim sTitle As String, sClass As String
        sTitle = Space$(255)
        sTitle = Left$(sTitle, GetWindowText(hWndThis, sTitle, Len(sTitle)))
        
        sClass = Space$(255)
        sClass = Left$(sClass, GetClassName(hWndThis, sClass, Len(sClass)))
        
        '' if need this is PID
        'PID = GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWndThis, PID)
        
        If (sTitle Like Title And sClass Like Class) And InStr(sTitle, ThisWorkbook.Name) = 0 Then
        SendMessage hWndThis, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_CLOSE, 0&
        End If
        
        hWndThis = GetWindow(hWndThis, GW_HWNDNEXT)
