How can I shut outlook from command line?

Piece of cake - but kinda risky. There may be another way to do it, but on NT you can use the "kill" command.
Syntax: kill outlook
- it works!
I havent tried it in a script, but there's got to be a way to do it. Like i said though - it's much easier to shutdown, or even force a reboot rather than kill an open application.

I think I know what you need to do but, not sure how to get you there. If you schedule a logoff of your server before you start your backup, it will close outlook. BackupExec will still run correctly logged off because it is runs as services.

That depends on their version of BackupExec.

True, is does depend on the version of BE that you have.
I know that v7.2 and above for NT will run as services.
