The best way to safely close an application is send a WM_CLOSE message to its main window.  If you have the process id (which you can get if you use CreateProcess), you can enumerate all the top level windows and call GetWindowThreadProcessId on each one until you find the window whose process id matches the process id returned by CreateProcess.  Once that is found, you can post a WM_CLOSE message to that window using SendMessage and it will close the window as if you clicked "Exit".   For other commands, you can iterate child windows and post message to the appropriate window.  Using the WM_MENUCOMMAND message you can simulate a menu selection.   It can get quite complicated depending on what you want to do but the APIs involved are pretty basic.
