Thanks Paul & Keith- I finally got it. Keith was right, I still had an
obscure attachment. There was a Set Array pointing to the spreadsheet
that did not release with the Erase method (can't Set an array to
"Nothing" so was using erase).

Excel still stays in task manager but dissappears when the VBA project
is unloaded.
