Hi Stephane,

You are great and you are always right. Thank you so much. The problem was exactly what you mentioned and it is fixed now. 
Thanks again :)

Thanks,
Vikram

If you are observing this on Mac OS X v10.7 and later, it's probably
the restoration at work since you're quitting an application without
closing the document. I would suggest closing the document and then
quitting.

Something like:

[myWindow performClose:nil];
[NSApp terminate:nil];
