^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If I have understood correctly, You want to close YOUR
APPLICATION without any queries from windows. This can be
easily done by including WM_CLOSE as you have mentioned.
The sample piece of code will be:-
case WM_CLOSE :
....
.... /* Getting Ready for Closing application*/
PostQuitMessage(0);
break;
The above code will close that window. If this code is
available in the main window, this will close your
application. I prefer a query to be included before
closing (ie. before PostQuitMessage(0)).
If you want your program to exit out of windows itself, You
can try FatalExit(0).
HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS?
Is it common to use this function in a standard application.
I have used this in our SQA testing version so that we can
automate testing.

I am not sure what you are trying to explain about write and
notepad.
