From: v.k. on 27 Nov 2006 11:51 Well, if the users exit the form for browse the records try this: Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer) MiDocView1.FileName = "" End Sub this works for me with a very small MS Access program I just did. But you have to be sure that they exit the form unless is necessary the form to be open. I this case I am trying to find a way Hope this be helpful "Bonnie" wrote: > I understand you fine VK.

From: v.k. on 27 Nov 2006 12:59 Using this way (miDocView1.FileName = "") you give a new parameter to your object and you realise the last document opened. So It does not remain locked.
