Hi everyone:

I have a question regarding to the handles retrieved by the CreateProcess
function because the documentation says you have to close the HProcess and
HThread when they are no longer needed.

My application opens documents using "FindExecutable" and "CreateProcess",
it also uses "WaitForSingleObject" to monitor when the spawned application
closes [Thanks Gambit!!! :D].

Currently, I'm closing the handles when the "WaitForSingleObject" function
returns, however those documens may remain open after my program closes, so
the question is: should I close the handles when my program closes even if
the files remain open?

Thank your for your time and any help provided...
