Would closing the connection have sufficed?
If not, what is the difference between closing a connection and
disposing of a connection?

I did not dispose of the connection within the script.
When I add the dispose with
Sub defrag_database( sRegName as string )
dim ctx, db, con, stmt
ctx = createUnoService("com.sun.star.sdb.DatabaseContext")
db = ctx.getByName(sRegName)
con = db.getConnection( "", "" )
stmt = con.CreateStatement
stmt.ExecuteUpdate( "CHECKPOINT DEFRAG" )
con.dispose
End Sub
Now the file immediately shrank to 9,557KB - without having to exit OOo
I noticed that after the first run the .lck file was not removed until
after OOo was fully closed, and that is what tipped me off.
What is insulting is that I really know enough from esxperience to
alwasy explicilty dispose of those [EMAIL PROTECTED] connection variables..
