Can DSData be closed from another application?

Yes. This is the same as shutting down any other Windows application. Like in VisualBasic you would use FindWindow API, followed by WM_CLOSE. DSData has actually 2 pieces; (1) DSData itself; (2) CommServer (CSMAIN). Closing DSData may not necessarily close the CommServer (CSMAIN) if, for example, you have DirectSoft Programming running. The reason is that both DSData and DirectSoft Programming use the same CommServer.
