problem with end of process

i have problem with end of process.

i need to zip file - and after i zip - i need to do some thing with this zip file...

the problem is, although the messagebox appear - i noticed that the process is not end.

how i can know for sure that the process is end ?

my zip sample:

try
{
     if (File.Exists(@"c:\DaZIP\Bind.sdf"))
         File.Delete(@"c:\DaZIP\Bind.sdf");
     File.Copy(Application.StartupPath + @"\Bind.sdf", @"c:\DaZIP\Bind.sdf");

     byte[] sampleBuffer = null;
     ZipEntry sampleZipFile = null;
     FileStream sampleFileStream = null;

     ZipOutputStream sampleOutputStream = new 
         ZipOutputStream(File.Create(Application.StartupPath + @"\Bind.zip"));
     sampleOutputStream.Password = "12345";
     sampleOutputStream.SetLevel(9);

     foreach (string sampleFile in Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\DaZIP")) 
     {
         sampleZipFile = new ZipEntry(Path.GetFileName(sampleFile));
         sampleOutputStream.PutNextEntry(sampleZipFile);

         sampleFileStream = File.OpenRead(sampleFile);
         sampleBuffer = new byte[sampleFileStream.Length];
         sampleFileStream.Read(sampleBuffer, 0, sampleBuffer.Length);
         sampleOutputStream.Write(sampleBuffer, 0, sampleBuffer.Length);
     }

     sampleOutputStream.Finish();
     sampleOutputStream.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    MessageBox.Show(ex.Message ,"",0, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation);
    return;
}

MessageBox.Show("End ZIP");

i work on VS2008 C# WinForm

i know that the process still work, because when i try to do somthing with the zip

file, i get error that the file is in use. and if i wait for 1-2 minute, i can do what i

want with this zip file.

The quesion is a bit unclear, but if by Process you mean System.Threading.Process, you can work with the Process.Exited event. It's raised when the process finishes.

Is this Windows App or Console App? In the first case, use Application.Exit(). In the second one - post entire code
