Hi guys, I'm facing with a terrible problem here.
I wanted to backup a my system database in run time.

In my backup form, I've set
connection.close
set connection = nothing

but to no avail, my "filecopy" still couldn't access the .mdb file....becuase it was locked....

Please can anyone help me? I've tried unloading all forms but still the lock remains....my understanding is...if the .mdb file is locked it means the connection is still there rite?
