I any OCX is available then it will ease your job. However, if we have to implement otheerwise, define a PIF file with option
'close on exit set'. Shell this file from your VB code & it will do its job. Remember, You can get the return code from it. You
can have commalnd line args if DOS program accepts.
My understanding is GetmoduleUsage count will not work under Win32, presuming you are using VB4 32bit.
