I¹ve not seen that behavior on my network, and I use several SQL oriented tools all over the place... One suggestion would be to attach a debugger to the process and see where it is failing to unload. But, even with that knowledge, you probably won¹t be able to do anything with a custom client app w/o source. Not much help, but that¹s all I got on it.. t On 9/28/06 7:25 AM, "tim.altena@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <tim.altena@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> spoketh to all: > No responses so far. No one has seen this behavior?
