[AccessD] Focus going to Windows explorer when Acccess form closes

Not me. I have lots of A2K7 apps which do this (close form, etc.) without
problems. My apps stay open until the final Exit button is clicked. After
that I cannot predict where the focus will go, since it depends on what you
did prior to opening my app. But that is not your problem, AFAIS. Something
in your code is wonky. Do you have embedded anywhere a call to
Application.Close? Just a WAG.
