Closing connection after a bad shutdown for Access Database

Hi All,

I am developing an WPF application with MS Access 2007 as the database.

After a bad shutdown, there is a file with an extension of .laccdb which means that the file is currently locked.

I wish to close the lock (or connection) the next time I start the application.

What steps do I have to do to accomplish this? Does deleting the file with the extension .laccdb will be all or do I have to perform any additional steps?

Please guide.
