Are you saying that you don't know how to kill the child windows or that
the child windows won't die?

If you don't know how to kill them, look up WinDestroyWindow.  If you are
already using WinDestroyWindow, then are you using the correct window
handles?  If you are using WinWindowFromID to get the correct window handles,
are the window id's unique on your application window?

It seems to me that it would be a whole lot easier to just throw up a
multiple-select listbox.  It sure would use a whole lot fewer windows.
(I haven't seen your application so this may not be a desirable option.)
