The views are closed down, but the tables and the cursors I create are not closed.

Just wanted you to know that you aren't alone. I have had the same issue ever since I have been using VFP. Except for manual garbage collection techniques, I haven't found anyway to solve it.

It has to be something I am doing, of course, but at the same time the behavior has not caused any data or application errors that I can tell.
