Default Close/Delete corrupt or open spreadsheet

I run an SQL integration package (DTS) that copies a template over a
spreadsheet to fill various ranges with data. Somehow the spreadsheet is
either open or corrupted and I can't either copy over, open or delete it. Is
there a backdoor trick to getting rid of an open/corrupted spreadsheet?
Thanks.

Default Close/Delete corrupt or open spreadsheet

The operating system still thinks somebody is using the file. You may have
to wait until the Operating system is rebooted/BackUp before the file can be
deleted.
