Access and Outlook

I know you can open outlook with a macro, easy right???? It works great. However, can anyone tell me if you can close outlook with a macro or other VBA code? I can't find anything on it so I assume no, but it would be wonderful if you could. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

If you open it in VBA code
i.e.
Dim outlookObj As Object
Set outlookObj = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
' Work with outlook here, show it to the user, run commands on it, etc.

now you have a reference to the outlook instance you opened (the object
"outlookObj"), so you can interact with it to close it at some future time:

outlookObj.Quit()
Set outlookObj = Nothing
