One could always use the Administrator API, and remove that setting from the

Lots of people have suggested similar things - cause an error when
running a query on the access database, which will break the lock.
Maureen also suggested deleting the ldb file. That's the file that
creates the lock and it cant be deleted.It gets deleted when the
system lets go of the

That would work too, Dave. I think!The second page would contain
the delete functionality? Seems to make sense.
The problem is to force ColdFusion to let go of the datasource
completely before attempting to delete the MDB file. I have found
that using CFThread wont work, because

It's not elegant, but I've found that throwing an error on the
datasource works for releasing them. Try a query against the dsn for a
table that doesn't exist.

unchecking the maintain database connections in the DSN may work.
If not then try the release all client connections option.
If still no go, just delete the DSN.

This has to happen automatically because the process is initiated by
an event when a manager logs on and maintains a record in the product
file. When that happens, it causes the system to generate a new
database for the users around the country to download when they next
log on.So i need to

. That would break the connection and release the .ldb.
This was years ago though.

days. With MX that stopped doing the trick.

Mike,
You could use the ColdFusion Admin API to create the datasource on the
fly, do whatever you need to do and then kill the datasource
programatically.
I have a code sample but it'll be another week or so before I can get to it.
you can give it go is all I can suggest. It works sometimes and not others.
If NOT maintaining the database conenctions doesn;t work, then you will need
to programatically deleted and re-create the DSN instead.
