>>>I know this is going to sound kind of weird without going into detail...but I have an application running with it's usual database. I then open tables from another database within the application, which in turn opens that database. When I am done with it I need to close the second database. How can I specify that database to close so that the app doesn't close the main database?

I think this is the command I was looking for. Now, why don't they include it under "See also"?
Pressumably, CLOSE DATABASE will close the then-current (SET) database. Just try it!
