Closing window

[ClipPete]

Hi Folks,

I had CH&S set up to accomplish one particular task. It was working nicely.
The program I was using it with, changed their code and is now giving me problems.

In order to fix the problem I would like to know how I can close the CH&S window using keystrokes?

I know I can open the CH&S window by using the hotkey: Crtl-Alt-W.
What is the hotkey to close the CH&S window?

Right now the only way I can find to close it is by mouse clicking the 'x' in the top right corner.
I don't want to close the program, just the window.

TIA!

If I make ctrl+alt+W toggle the window closed if it is already showing, would that solve your problem?

Yes that would solve my problem! 
If you could do it that would be great.

Thanks Mouser for that!
I tried out the code with my script and it is working nicely.

As I was working with my script (AutoHotKey) just now, trying to fix up a couple of other things, I noticed another line in my CH&S code that jumped out at me.
It was: Send, !{F4}

Sure enough when I tried it out, (it was code that I had been using later on in my script) it also was capable of closing CH&S.
Usually Alt-F4 will close down a program, but for some reason it just closes the CH&S window (which is exactly what I wanted).

I noticed that the .exe is quite a bit larger than the previous version, so I hope you made a few more adjustments besides the Ctrl-Alt-W.  

Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it.

It took a while before I was able to get your program to copy a few fields and store them so I could later retrieve them for use in Excel (all with keystrokes), but I finally figured it out earlier this year.
Yours was the only clip program I tried that could accomplish this.
