ReplyDelete"Very Nice!"
Is it possible to stop process but never close excel workbook
ReplyDeleteIt does what the title says it does, don't expect more!
DeleteSave, close the workbook programaticly and set your object to nothing or whatever. Then kill the residual Excel.exe process. What I do not understand is why the process is still there and this kind of brute force kill is nessasary to begin with! I have removed all add ins in Excel. This seems to be a known common problem even up to Excel 201. I havent tested Excel 2013 yet.
That is strange. Once the process gets killed the Application is no more in Memory
ReplyDeleteEh. What? Is that irony?
DeleteWorks Great - Thank You.
ReplyDeleteI've been fighting with this problem for days . . . .

Fantastic solution, but what if the user has other sessions of excel open that they don't want closed?
ReplyDeletedude, this is not working for me. Is it because of excel 2010 version since i can see for others it is exact solution. Please reply soon.
