FAQ.How to kill a process by name?

Answer: You can kill a process (or application) by name if you loop over all the processes and kill the one you need.
Example
dim p as new ProcessMBS
p.GetfirstProcess ' get first
do
if p.name = "TextEdit" then
call p.KillProcess
Return
end if
loop until not p.GetNextProcess

You may want to check the result of killProcess function. Not every user is allowed to kill every application.
