Can't focus or close windows

I'm writing my first script to open Peachtree Accouting, export a report to Excel, save the report, then close both programs.

I can get the script to open Peachtree and export the report, but afterward it will not setfocus on any window or close any window. I've tired Alt+F4, CloseWindow, SetFocus+CloseWindow, Alt+F+X and even using mouse commands.

Any suggestions?

Could you publish some code that you tried. Also which of the alternative close solutions work when doing it manually?

Maybe it is busy when you're trying to close it. Perhaps you need to wait for it finish whatever it is doing. A bit drastic, but if you want to close the entire application you could try killing it's process using the KillProcess command in v12.
