Why Close when you can Kill?

[Antinsh]

Hi

Can somebody please give me a good reason why Close function of certain
things like forms or word application obejcts should be used rather than just
killing them of as a process?

The thing is Im working with word objects and it is just such a pain because
when ever PC slows down you start getting errors like: Call was rejected by
callee. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010001 (RPC_E_CALL_REJECTED))

But if you close (for example) word app with process killer it works just
fine (no questions, no problems etc... )

Re. Enquiry:

Killing a process may create other problems if the processing was not
complete.
In my opinion, it is like a lazy way out... You should investigate why
errors are generated and either code so that those errors do not shopw up or
handle them with error trapping.
Now, if you are 1000% (Yes, 1000, not 100!) certain that all processing is
complete, then I guess you can kill the process...
