Closing database in VB .Net

Hello everone.

Can somebody help me?
When I run my code I can read, write to and delete from database, but when I
have done one of these things and try to copy the databasefile from my
folder to an other folder with Windows Explorer the system "hangs up" for a
couple of minutes. It seems like the databasefile is not closed. But after
2 - 3 minutes the system recover, and I can copy the file without any system
"hangups".

This is a problem because when I try to write to or delete from the database
with my program, it seems like the program also "hangs up" and I must wait
2 - 3 minutes till it recover again. Then the changes is stored.

This is the code I use when I try to write to the database:

Dim sSQL As String

Dim connection As String

connection = "provider=Micro soft.JET.OLEDB. 4.0;Data
Source=J:\Besti lling.mdb"

sSQL = "INSERT INTO Bestillinger (StudentNummer, DatamaskinType, LeieTid)
VALUES ('" & studentNr & "', '" & typeMaskin & "', '" & leiePeriode & "')"

Dim testConn As New System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbConnect ion(connection)

Dim testCmd As New System.Data.Ole Db.OleDbCommand (sSQL, testConn)

Try

testConn.Open()

Catch myExceptions As System.Exceptio n

Console.WriteLi ne(myExceptions .Message)

End Try

Console.Write(" Test", sSQL)

Console.ReadLin e()

If testConn.State = ConnectionState .Open Then

Try

testCmd.Execute NonQuery()

Catch myExceptions As System.Exceptio n

Console.WriteLi ne(myExceptions .Message)

Console.ReadLin e()

End Try

testConn.Close( )

End If

Is the corresponding .LDB file deleted immediately after closing the Access database?

Not sure if this database is on a network share but this could cause some delay in closing the
database.

Over the years I've gotten out of the habit of explicitly closing file objects (whether for reading or writing) since the right thing always seems to happen auto-magically (e.g. files get written to disk with no missing data). I've recently started do the same thing with database connections. I'm wondering if anyone has had trouble with this sort of "lazy" programming style. My assumption is the the database connection will get closed...

I have a form which the user must complete before closing. I have disabled the window x button and use my own exit button. When selected it checks to see if the user has completed the entries otherwise it cancels the close. However, the user can still right click on the task bar and close my application. Is there any way of preventing this. Thanks Alex

We're running into a problem on our new site. Once a week or so, our site goes down with an 'out of memory error'. Rebooting the web server fixes things. Googling the error doesn't return many results (one, actually) and the suggested fix is to make sure you are manually closing all DB connections. I'm doing that now, but I had thought that asp.net had fairly robust automated cleanup, and that having to explicitely close every connection...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
