Replacing a file still points to original file

In my folder "Program Files\CurrencyInventory" I have a file AA_Inv.mdb.
When I copy from another folder the same file name AA_Inv.mdb to the
CurrencyInventory folder it is NOT replaced. The original file version is
displayed.

If I delete the file and then run my application the original file is used
by my application when I would expect a runtime error since the file in not
in my folder.

I don't understand what is happening

thanks
sandy
