Hi there,

I am trying to find a VB routing that will execute one
application in windows (of my choice) then execute another one when the first one is closed.
Basically what I want is a computer that will only run one program. I want this program to launch automatically when
windows starts, then when the user exits the program completely I want the system to automatically shut down and power off.
I know how to shut the machine down automatically but I do
not know how to make it do so when the app. ends.

I have VB 6 but I am not very good at using it and I haven't been able to find what I need on the net.
Is there something simple that someone could point me to that I could easily modify to my needs?

I don't need any fancy menus or even a window that asks
y/n. Just run the app then shut down when it's done. Simple.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
