Data Base Duplication

I have an ACCESS application that appears to be running successfully except for one little problem. The problem that continually occurs is when the application database closes it creates a duplicate database with the name as db1.mdb and then on the next day after the application closes another database is created with the name of db2.mdb. This continues until I remove the unwanted databases.

Please help.
 
Do you have it set up for Compacting on Close? If so, it may be hitting an error on compacting. This will cause it to create these duplicate databases.

Check under Tools -> Options on the General Tab.

Hope this helps.
