how to close open vbs message boxes with vbs

Question

I've just gotten into vbs and I've been messing around with it, (mainly opening message boxes) and I was wondering if their was a way to close open vbs message boxes with the same script. To keep things simple lets say the open vbs files are all 1.vbs or 2.vbs. I've tried looking up solutions online but none of them worked they were mainly for closing exe files or browser tabs. I would greatly appreciate it if somebody could help, thank you in advance
