stop labview application from MS VC got internal error: image.cpp line 11450

Hi:
I need to control a labview application (It's been compiled as exe file)from my MS VC program. I tried using PostMessage(hWnd, WM_CLOSE) from whithin my program as MSDN suggested method to stop an application
cleanly. However, when i put my program in debugging mode and run it step by step, the LV program generate an internal error "image.cpp linexxxx" after it reached that PostMessage() call. in run mode , the Labview app simply ignore the WM_CLOSE message sent from my program.
So is there any other ways to stop labview application from VC program?
Thank you!

You can use ActiveX. Turn the server on for your built app, open a
connection from VC, and use the app or VI properties to get LV to exit.

The activeX server method Quit() takes no affect if the application is not launched through activeX.
