VB6 won't release files

$

I am using CoolTools (MIDI resources) from Mabry in VB6 under Windows 7. Everything works fine. However, when I close a file, it is not physically released by VB6. i.e. and any subsequent attempt to `do' anything with the file is blocked. Even if I jump in to Windows and try to delete the file from there, its comes up locked. Only after I exit VB6 does the file become released.
Is there anyway of forcing any connection to the file to be cleared?
My application always clsoes an open file before it starts on a new file and it doesn't seem to matter how many files I open/close/create/close, they are all locked from Windows access until VB6 is killed.
