If AppFind$("Microsoft Excel") = "" Then 'Make sure Excel is there.

Notes
|
A runtime error results if the application being closed is not enabled, as is the case if that application is currently displaying a modal dialog box.
The name$ parameter is the exact string appearing in the title bar of the named application's main window. If no application is found whose title exactly matches name$, then a second search is performed for applications whose title string begins with name$. If more than one application is found that matches name$, then the first application encountered is used.
