I have been experiencing a strange problem when closing one of my workbooks
which connects to the SQL server via ado. After the workbooks with code is
closed if another workbook is open and I click on another workbook, excel
will crash. If however I click on outlook or another office application,
bring it to focus and then go back to excel its fine. I have checked to make
sure all object are being released. Any ideas...

Make sure your code has some DoEvents in (2 or 3 sometimes) before it ends
to allow Excel to clear the message queue. Also make sure you do not
reference any forms, or if you do make sure to set everything to nothing.

I have had similar probs, eventually I think it ended up being an implicit
reference to a function in a form (should have been in a module anyway).
