Access CloseCurrentDatabase Method  Example

CloseCurrentDatabase Method - You can use the CloseCurrentDatabase method to close the current database (either a Microsoft Access database (.mdb) or an Access project (.adp) from another application that has opened a database through Automation.
Here is a little example the opens another Access database and creates a form, then closed the database.  Can you envision the uses of this technique to write temporary table to another database (creating the database on the fly)?

      ' Create new instance of Microsoft Access.
Set appAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application")

      ' Create a new form.
Set frm = appAccess.CreateForm
      ' Save the new form.
appAccess.DoCmd.Save , "New_Form"
      ' Close the newly opened database.
appAccess.CloseCurrentDatabase
      ' Cleanup
Set appAccess = Nothing
