I have control of the different ways I exit from my program but if the user
exit the program using the upper right "X" I have no way of stopping the
third party software that I have running in the back ground. Where fox-pro
has shutdown() what is there, that I can use to stop the third party program
from running?

Put the code to kill the other app in the form's _onClose event.

If all else fails, use a hidden empty form with its CanClose event and
switch if off there.
