stop an application using a batch file

[Paul]

Need to find out if there is a way to stop and restart
application using a batch file in windows 2000 pro. This
is not a service but trying to stop a small application to
install some .dll files and restart the app all with out
any user intervention. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You

You can use Close.exe, tip 431 in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com
to stop it.
You can use Runas and Sanur to restart it in the user context required, tip
