My first thought is try Dispose() on the connection to ensure it has
been marked as finished.
I do have a question about this, however:
TPSupdate.ConnectionString =
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("DSNEMPMST")
TPSupdate.ConnectionString =
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("EMPMSTconnection")
Since you are not using the DSNEMPMST, why have it in code.
What type of database are you using here? That may be another issue, as
the closing of any lock files (Access, for example) could be an issue.
If you can move from ODBC to OLEDB, you will see some perf improvement,
which may help, if destroying a lock file is the issue.
Peace and Grace,
