Sounds like you might be better off not using WM_CLOSE, since the OS is=20
going to complain if you ignore it for too long. But you have plenty of=20
other options if you want to handle communications between two apps you=20
control. Easiest thing is to use RegisterWindowMessage() to get a unique=20
message value for your own custom quit message, and then the child=20
application could post WM_CLOSE to itself whenever it receives that custom=
=20
quit message from the launcher app.
