I think I found the problem of my “hanging” ShellExecute. In my application I have a TRichViewEdit in which the user can do basic editing. If the user needs more, he presses the Word button, that will start Word with the appropriate document.<\/p>\n
If I don’t edit in the TRichView first, and go straight to Word, any attempt to close Word normally fails. Taskmanager etc will work, but that will cancel all editing.
\nIf I edit in the TRichViewEdit first, save it, and then open Word, things run smooth like a baby’s ass.<\/p>\n
The difficult part is this: the TRichViewEdit REMOVES a graphic that is in the Header of the Word document. So I have 2 things to solve:<\/p>\n
1: The removal of the picture
\n2: Word behaving strangely when the picture is still in the document<\/p>\n
