In the Main form of my application I declare
Friend Shared WithEvents WordApp As New Word.Application()
And it works fine
When I'm living an application I try to close MS Word
WordApp.Documents.Close(Word.WdSaveOptions.wdDoNotSaveChanges)
WordApp.Quit(Word.WdSaveOptions.wdDoNotSaveChanges)
WordApp = Nothing
First Line works fine. Second line give error in the VB.Net 2002 and do not
give error in the VB.NET 2003 but MS WORD state open. If I open the
application again a second instance of the MS Word will be opened and so on.
Can somebody tell me what wrong with this approach.
Thanks, Bronislav

Call 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject' on each COM
object ('WordApp', document objects, ...).

Thank you, but MS Word still stays open. All documents are closing properly.
Thanks again.

Have a look at this:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;317109
you might want to follow the instructions in the article..

You can try calling ReleaseComObject in a loop till the reference count hits
zero:

Do While System.Runtime.InteropServices.ReleaseComObject() <> 0

Loop


hope that helps..
Imran.
