You need to do one of two things:

1) go the cfadmin and to the ODBC connection to your database (Access I am
guessing) then turn off the "keep connections alive" until you are ready to
go live with the whole thing.

2) copy the db, paste the copy and append a "_a" or whatever to the end -
then go to the cfadmin (as above) and append the "_a" to the end of the
path, wait for a while then work on the "old" version, then when you are
ready swap them back...

I find that I cannot overwrite a database file since it appears that CF
has it locked.  How can I release it so I can overwrite it?
