Hi All,

I've got a Windows Forms app that I want to return an error code to the caller
- it's a utility in a larger build process and I need to aboort the build if
the utility fails.

I've tried Environment.Exit(<code>) but I only ever get 0x00 returned for any
number tried. Can't see any other way of doing this - surely it must be
possible somehow?

Cheers
Anthony
