I have an external application that I can start using the shell and path function. The application runs in my system tray.
I want to create a button in excel that will activate a macro that will stop this application.

I dont know the syntax or the proper function to use.

For example the program I want to stop is called Update.exe
When it runs, it is only in the tray at the bottom right of the screen.(It's not a minimized window) The path for this is C:\datalog\update.exe

Now how can I tell a Macro in Excel to stop and exit this application. A solution word for word would be nice.

Thank you to all.
