Stopping outlook from a command line.

P

Paul Fitzpatrick

I have a scheduling software that runs reports and emails
results. When we take the exchange server down for the
weekly backups (3 hours) my connections from my reports NT
server is killed and I get the retry, work offline
message. The problem is that I have reports that hold
until the connection is re-established. Which is not
until the next business day and someone manually clicks
the retry button. I have a job that starts MS outlook
with the command: START D:\reports\Bin\OUTLOOK.EXE which
will launch it. But I need the kill command to stop it
prior to the backups so it will start up ok. Any ideas?
I have tried shutdown, kill and stop.
