Can one execute code (a program) automatically when EG closes ?

In a similar way that  autoexec executes when EG opens ?

Implicit in your requirement is the need to have an open SAS server connection when you close EG. This may not always be the case.

I suggest you research the TERMSTMT = SAS option as a way of running code when closing a SAS server connection in EG. This statement could be a %INCLUDE statement to run a complete program. 

There is no way I am aware of for EG itself to trigger a program on closing itself. A server-side solution like TERMSTMT is the only option I can think of.
