Exporting to an Access database ends with the Message "The selected database is open. ..."

Uncheck under "Access Options / Client Settings / Advanced" - "Open last used database when Access starts"

We use for open the Database following Code in .Net:

Try
   dbs = DBEngine.OpenDatabase(strFilename, False, False)
Catch ex As Exception
   MsgBox(My.Resources.Resource1.strAccessOpen,MsgBoxStyle.Critical, strAppName)
End Try

This raise the Messagebox "The selected database is open..." if OpenDatabase failes.

Is no other database open, repair your Office / Access installation.
