      memset(&StartupInfo,0,sizeof(STARTUPINFO));
      StartupInfo.cb=sizeof(STARTUPINFO);

ErrorCode=GetLastError();

CloseHandle(ProInfo.hThread);
//Wait for the exit of the child process
WaitForSingleObject(ProInfo.hProcess, INFINITE);
//Get the exit code of the child process
GetExitCodeProcess(ProInfo.hProcess,&ErrorCode);
//Close the child process handle
CloseHandle(ProInfo.hProcess);
