Maybe "which has the job...". Or maybe just > "which terminates ...". I might eliminate "exactly", too. Not really a > problem the way it is. :)) OK, let's go for "which terminates the Program's Execution". Thanks. Betov. < http://rosasm.org >

There's probably other words that can be used in place of the word clown. Something like stooge, goofy, goof, gumball. Then there's a whole list of proper names like Scooby, Elmo, Bozo, Scrappy, Fudd, Elmer, Gonzo, Radar, Kermit (practically any of the muppets), Bert, Cookie Monster... Don't limit yourself to that list. With some creative efforts, some imagination... Comparisons work great sometimes... Slappy like a string. Salty as the Atlantic. The word, "clown", ended up as crusty as the deposits in your drawers. You know what I mean, Vern? -- Jim Carlock Post replies to the group.

The program has terminated itself by calling "ExitProcess". "ExitProcess" is not the executioner but the mortician who has to dispose the corpse. It is a suicide an not a murder.

"ExitProcess terminates the program." or "Use ExitProcess to terminate a program and return control to the starting application." -- Jim Carlock Post replies to the group. |
