According to the mathematica help, the function

Exit[n]
or
Quit[n]

terminates the mathematica session. I don't see this behaviour.  When
I shift/enter on an Exit cell, the kernel stops but the notebook
remains as does the entire mathematica application (session?).

The command 

NotebookClose[EvaluationNotebook[]]

closes the notebook leaving the application running.

I want to generate an exit flag for the windows API and I thought
Exit[n] would be the answer.

Any suggestions?
