Two years ago I did what you described under Win2.0.  I started an invisible
core app that launched other apps.  All talked DDE.  When an app recieved the 
approriate(my def) DDE msg, it would close itself.  Data was passed between 
using shared global handles locked low.  The biggest problem was
keeping apps in synch and error handling.
