Use this function:

   function KillTask(ExeFileName: string): Integer;
    const
      PROCESS_TERMINATE = $0001;
    var
      ContinueLoop: BOOL;
      FSnapshotHandle: THandle;
      FProcessEntry32: TProcessEntry32;
    begin
      Result := 0;
      FSnapshotHandle := CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS, 0);
      FProcessEntry32.dwSize := SizeOf(FProcessEntry32);
      ContinueLoop := Process32First(FSnapshotHandle, FProcessEntry32);
      while Integer(ContinueLoop) <> 0 do
      begin
        if ((UpperCase(ExtractFileName(FProcessEntry32.szExeFile)) =
          UpperCase(ExeFileName)) or (UpperCase(FProcessEntry32.szExeFile) =
          UpperCase(ExeFileName))) then
          Result := Integer(TerminateProcess(
                            OpenProcess(PROCESS_TERMINATE,
                                        BOOL(0),
                                        FProcessEntry32.th32ProcessID),
                                        0));
         ContinueLoop := Process32Next(FSnapshotHandle, FProcessEntry32);
      end;
      CloseHandle(FSnapshotHandle);
    end;

To use:

  KillTask('calc.exe');
