Access Database Project not closing properly

[Guest]

My new Microsoft Access adp database appears to close when I quit but is
actually still running. I know this because I cannot re-open it and a look
at the running processes in Windows Task Manager reveals that MSACCESS.EXE is
still running.

My Close button runs the DoCmd.Quit command but it doesn't prevent this from
happening - not does closing by click the X in the top-right corner.

Any ideas please? Thanks.

If the .ldb file is gone then Access is not running.

I do believe that it works like the old DOS TSR (Terminate Stay Ready)
programs. They are fully loaded and ready to go. Next time you boot up
check how long it takes for Word or Access to be fully operational from the
time you initiate them.

Then after you have closed but not shut down the computer time them again.
The second time is a lot shorter.

The second time doesn't happen...

The only way to run the database after closing it is to first do
Ctl-Alt-Delete to get the Task Manager, click MSACCESS.EXE in the processes
box and remove it. You cannot run Access again until this is done.
