Hi Laura -

Is the Access db on a network or local? Just to make sure someone else doesn't have it open, even after you close it.
If, when you close Access, the ldb file persists, will it delete if you manually delete it via Explorer? If not, and you get an error about the file being in use, have you verified that Access is actually closed? (No processes of msaccess.exe still running; check Task Manager).
