Close Outlook 2000 from a command line?

I am writing a DOS batch file to automate NTbackup in Windows 2000
Professional. Outlook.pst won't back up if Outlook is running. I want to
close Outlook from a batch file so that NTbackup can back up the file.

I can use a freeware program called pskill.exe to close Outlook, but it
kills Outlook even if it is in the middle of downloading email, which seems
like a bad idea. Is there a command line option in Outlook that would close
the application after allowing it to finish all of it's processes?
