I have used the following without success. The active workbook closes, indeed, but the excel window remains open.

Application.ActiveWindow.Close SaveChanges:=False
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False

Which is the command that terminates the application?

EDIT

To say a little more: In the workbook Open event I run a macro. I want to terminate the application when that macro finishes. I also tried this without success.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
   Macro_MyJob
   Application.Quit
End Sub

Where should I put this Application.Quit command?

+1  A: 
Application.Quit 

Should do the trick.

I think your problem is that it's closing the document that calls the macro before sending the command to quit the application.

Your solution in that case is to not send a command to close the workbook. Instead, you could set the "Saved" state of the workbook to true, which would circumvent any messages about closing an unsaved book. Note: this does not save the workbook; it just makes it look like it's saved.

ThisWorkbook.Saved = True

and then, right after

Application.Quit
