I create a new Access.Applicat ion instance. As soon as I refernce the property "References ", I am unable to issue a truly successful quit on that instance. By that I mean the call to quit is fine but if you look in task manager, the instance is still running. Furthermore, if you opened a database using that instance, you will not be able to open it until you quit the entire application or until you kill that process. BTW, the process is killed automatically on successful exit of the application (but it doesn't get killed if you simply go out of scope). I am interested in whether or not this is a real bug, or if there is a service pack or if it affects other versions of Access. To replicate
Create a new Windows Form Application. Add a reference to the Microsoft Access 9.0 Object Library COM component (this will automatically add some other references). Add a button to your form. In the click event for that button do something like (VB.NET)
Dim o As Access.Applicat io
o = New Access.Applicat io
o.OpenCurrentDa tabase("c:\some db.mdb", False
Dim x as Integer = o.References.Co un
o.CloseCurrentD atabase(
o.Qui
Set a breakpoint on the End Sub line. Open task manager and you should see an instance of MSACCESS.EXE still running
Let the program get out of the Sub (exit that scope) and you will see that the instance is still running. Exit the application normally (no errors, don't kill the application) and you will see that the OS properly kills the instance with the application
Run this again but take out the line: "Dim x as Integer = o.References.Co unt" and you will see that at the end of the sub, the instance is not there. I have a bunch of code like this and no other lines are causing this to happen, i.e. if I take out the few lines of code that reference "References ", all instances of MSACCESS.EXE exit properly 1 2959

Hello all,
My code can successfully open, write to, format and save several
worksheets in a workbook then save it by a given name, close and quit excel.
My problem is that if I try and do it again, Excel hangs. OR if I open
Excel again (say from a desktop icon) before I close Access, Excel
hangs. (this has happened for both 97 & 2000 for me)
I of course thought that I mustn't be unloading a variable properly.
