>I would like to see the "clean up database" option of the database designer be available programmatically. That way, in my big "Fix Anything that might be wrong" maintance routine, I could do a clean up!

Isn't clean up database nothing more than a pack of the DBC? You can do this programatically...

close database MyDataBase
use MyDataBase.DBC excl
pack
use
open database MyDataBase
