I am using the latest Windows version of Armory and I noticed that a command prompt window opens and stays open when the Armory Wallet Client is open. Sometimes, I close the command prompt window before I close the Armory Wallet Client itself. It seems that maybe when I do that I am messing up the Wallet Client and need to rebuild my databases. So, my questions is, do I need to be more careful about closing the command prompt window while Armory is open?

What version of Armory are you using (don't just say latest, give a version number)?

Do not close that command prompt or Armory will not work. It is a prompt for a background process that Armory runs and it must stay open for that to work. Do not close it, Armory should close it for you when you stop the wallet.

I just downgraded from Bitcoin Core version v0.15.0.1 (64-bit) to Bitcoin Core version v0.15.0 (64-bit) to fix the "offline node" issue.

With 15.0.1 the command prompt was not closing on its own. After I downgraded to 15.0 the command prompt has started closing on its own.

Thank you so much for your help.

Armory 0.96
You should use Armory 0.96.3. That should fix your problems with Bitcoin Core 0.15.0.1. There are known issues with older versions of Armory and Bitcoin Core 0.15.0.1.
