Compact on close

Dear reader,



If "Compact on close" is set to yes (tickbox) the mdb or mde will be compact
by closing.

During this process a temporary db1.mdb will be generated and deleted after
the compact is finished.

But on same aliens pc's I see that the temporary mdb is not deleted after
finishing the compact process and I see that the temporary mdb is much
bigger than on the machine where it works correct.



What can be wrong that the compact on close setting works not correct on an
alien pc.



Thanks for any help.



Kind regards,

Simon

The user needs "delete" permissions to the folder.
