Hi All,
I have a problem after created the access database
the following is my code

private void CreateDatabase()
{
File.Delete(ExportFileDest);
ADOX.Catalog cat = new ADOX.CatalogClass();
cat.Create("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\\DailyAttendance.mdb;" +
"Jet OLEDB:EngineType=5");
cat = null;
}

it is fine for first time to create the database but fail if execute twice when the code try to delete
the existing file.
the access file is lock after the first creation. it only release until i closed the application program.
i don't understand why "cat = null;" cannot release the file.
is anyone can help me on this problem? thanks a lot.

I do not work with Office objects, but see if there is a Dispose method on
the .NET wrapper, as that is a major contention. You have to make sure you
close everything and dispose of objects when using Interop.

For DB creation, I prefer having a raw .mdb and simply copying for the
creation process. I can then use SQL for everything else and not worry about
using the Office objects on my web server and risking a security hole.

Try closing the connection using the ActiveConnection property and then set it to Nothing (or null).
