Hi,

I posted this in the sql forum but I think this place is more appropriate.

I've written a vb.net windows appication that allows a user to run DTS
packages on a remote SQL 2000 Server.

The program runs the DTS packages in a sequence.

The DTS package that fails is a simple delete database process.
Drop databasename;

However before I delete the database I perform the following on the database.

Dim Conn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConnectionString)
Conn.Open()
DO some stuff
Conn.Close()
Conn.Dispose()
Conn = Nothing

I then run my executeDTSPackage code and it fails.
It fails because there is a connection existing with the database.

What other code do I need to add to obliterate any connection still existing?

Note: the executeDTSPackage works If I don't open up a connection to the
database.

Thanks

Chris
