kill window

[Konrad]

Hi

How to kill some window from the same application
but from other thread having name of this window?

Thanks Konrad

You may want to structure the application so that the thread knows more
about the window than just the name.

However, with just the name, you could certainly use P/Invoke.

FindWindow to get the handle to the window, then
SendMessage to send a WM_CLOSE to the window

What's the "name" of the window?

Hi Konrad,

Since it's in the same application, you may pass in your Form reference to
your thread, and call the close <form>.Invoke(new
MethodInvoker(<form>.Close()));
You need call Form.Close by Control.Invoke method, because it's not
recommended to operate GUI on another thread.
