Script Extensions and Scope

Yeah, there's at least one example of using multiple extensions I saw.  BUT, I have switched gears a bit.



I took the original global class and added an "Excel" member.  I created the set and get routines and it works fine.  It works ALMOST exactly as you described.  I simply have to add "global." in front of my current Excel manipulations, whatever they may be.



Everything is working fine, but now my problem is that I can't shut off the Excel process.  So, I have this:

var Excel ;

function excel_state(state, path, worksheet)

{

    if(state=='open')

    {

        Excel = Sys.OleObject("Excel.Application") ;

        Excel.Workbooks.Open(path).Worksheets(worksheet).Activate;

    }

    if(state=='close')

    {

        Excel.displayalerts = false;

        Excel.SaveWorkspace();

        Excel.displayalerts = true ;

        Excel.quit();

        //Sys.OleObject("Excel.Application").quit() ;

    }

}   //   excel_state()



Excel simply refuses to shut off whenever I perform the following in the main script OR in the excel_state() method:

global.excel_state('close') ;

Excel.quit() ;

Sys.OleObject("Excel.Application").quit() ;



Inside the excel_state() method, the first three statements DO execute.  Is there anything else I should do?  Should I write a loop to wait for it to die?  Is there a project setting I have to change?
