Kill Process API specifying user

[Adrian]

Access 2003 & Terminal Server 2003

I am using the code below (posted in Sep 2004) to kill a process if it is
running. Howevere because we are running Access on Terminal Server I need to
only kill the process for the user that runs this (otherwise it kills it for
all users). Does anyone know how it can be amended to specify the user as
well?

Thanks,

Adrian

This will Kill ALL winword.exe processes that are running (or any process
name
you choose to pass it).

This goes in a standard module:


Option Explicit
Type PROCESSENTRY32
dwSize As Long
cntUsage As Long
th32ProcessID As Long
th32DefaultHeapID As Long
th32ModuleID As Long
cntThreads As Long
th32ParentProcessID As Long
pcPriClassBase As Long
dwFlags As Long
szexeFile As String * 260
End Type
'-------------------------------------------------------
Declare Function OpenProcess Lib "kernel32.dll" (ByVal dwDesiredAccess As
Long, _
ByVal blnheritHandle As Long, ByVal dwAppProcessId As Long) As Long


Declare Function ProcessFirst Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "Process32First"
(ByVal hSnapshot As Long, _
uProcess As PROCESSENTRY32) As Long


Declare Function ProcessNext Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "Process32Next" (ByVal
hSnapshot As Long, _
uProcess As PROCESSENTRY32) As Long


Declare Function CreateToolhelpSnapshot Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias
"CreateToolhelp32Snapshot" ( _
ByVal lFlags As Long, lProcessID As Long) As Long


Declare Function TerminateProcess Lib "kernel32.dll" (ByVal ApphProcess As
Long, _
ByVal uExitCode As Long) As Long


Declare Function CloseHandle Lib "kernel32.dll" (ByVal hObject As Long) As
Long


'this will take care of killing any errant TestWinsock.exe instances
'it seems that some devices will accept a connection even though
'they do not have the agent installed


'-------------------------------------------------------
Public Sub KillProcess(NameProcess As String)
Const PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS = 0
Const PROCESS_TERMINATE = (&H1)
Const TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS As Long = 2&
Dim uProcess As PROCESSENTRY32
Dim RProcessFound As Long
Dim hSnapshot As Long
Dim SzExename As String
Dim ExitCode As Long
Dim MyProcess As Long
Dim AppKill As Boolean
Dim AppCount As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim WinDirEnv As String


If NameProcess <> "" Then
AppCount = 0


uProcess.dwSize = Len(uProcess)
hSnapshot = CreateToolhelpSnapshot(TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS, 0&)
RProcessFound = ProcessFirst(hSnapshot, uProcess)


Do
i = InStr(1, uProcess.szexeFile, Chr(0))
SzExename = LCase$(Left$(uProcess.szexeFile, i - 1))
WinDirEnv = Environ("Windir") + "\"
WinDirEnv = LCase$(WinDirEnv)


If Right$(SzExename, Len(NameProcess)) = LCase$(NameProcess)
Then
AppCount = AppCount + 1
MyProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_TERMINATE, False,
uProcess.th32ProcessID)
AppKill = TerminateProcess(MyProcess, ExitCode)
Call CloseHandle(MyProcess)
End If
RProcessFound = ProcessNext(hSnapshot, uProcess)
Loop While RProcessFound
Call CloseHandle(hSnapshot)
End If


End Sub


Call it like so:
KillProcess "winword.exe"
