HOW TO close Excel instance started by mail merge

Answer 1

Excel can be closed via VBA, if called from within Excel

Application.Quit

If called from outside Excel, you will need to set a reference to Excel and then close it.

Set appExcel = GetObject(, "Excel.Application")
appExcel.Quit

You need to ensure that all Workbooks are closed or saved, otherwise Excel will prompt the user to save.
