There are a few articles in MS (KB) on "How to Use a 32-Bit Application to
Determine When a Shelled Process Ends (Q129796). This works if theshelled
Process Window is closed. I am using a "Save As" option in acrobat which
takes about 10 sec. The time will change depending the the file size.

I didn't see any parameters the MS (KB) used that has this information either.

I need a way to determine the Save As option has completed. The Save As
option will take a .pdf file and make many .jpg file for each page. I need
a way to know when to close the application.

Thank You.
 
I'm not sure whether Acrobat supports automation. If it does, you might be
able to instantiate it using With Events, and trap things like that.
Otherwise, I doubt it's possible.
