Hello Pola,

Thanks for your post. I reviewed your description carefully, and now I'd
like to share the following information with you:

Generally speaking, we should handle cleanup operations of an application
in the WM_CLOSE message handler. There is other closing message that "Task
Manager" will send. Please also kindly note that Task Manager will
terminate a process forcibly if it hangs.

Hope this helps.

Hello Pola,

Thanks for your prompt response.
Is it possible to get message in my appl from Windows Task Manager?

In the Applications panle of Task Manager, it will post WM_CLOSE message to
the application when you select to "End Task. However, in Processes panel,
when you click "End Process", a Task Manager Warning comes up and states:

"WARNING: Terminating a process can cause undesired results including loss
of data adn system instability. The process will not be given the chance to
save its state or data before it is terminated. Are you sure you want to
terminate the process?"

If you click "Yes", it will forcibly terminate your application.

Hope this helps.
