In an Excel macro, inside a loop I issue the following,
  where the names are unique each time:

    Workbooks.Open Filename:=openFYL$
    With Worksheets(1)
   '  .Copy    ''do not need; saves BOOKn space
       .SaveAs svWK$
    End With
   ' NOTE: Related metadata folders are created on the fly
    Open svWK$ For Input As #1      'EG: "USE_P001.TXT"

 When the loops are done, then and only then can i attempt to
  close and remove the files.

   Close  'MUST close files, for removal
   For PG = 1 To 7
  '* Remove parsed secondary files for minimum handles
     For nsnFIND = 1 To 11
      FPG$ = Right$("000" + Mid$(Str$(PG), 2), 3)
      REF$ = Right$("0" + Mid$(Str$(nsnFIND), 2), 2)
      svWK$ = "DET_R" + FPG$ + REF$ + ".txt"
      On Error Resume Next    '** NOTE: does not always work
      Workbooks(svWK$).Close SaveChanges:=True
      Kill sav2$
      RmDir deeFAULT$ + "DET_R" + FPG$ + REF$ + "_files"
     Next nsnFIND
     '* Remove parsed primary files for minimum handles
     FPG$ = Right$("000" + Mid$(Str$(PG), 2), 3)
     svWK$ = "DET_P" + FPG$ + ".txt"
     Workbooks(svWK$).Close SaveChanges:=True
     Kill svWK$
     '        deeFAULT$ = "C:\Users\BOB\Documents\"
     ' PATH AND FILE NAME IS CORRECT
     ' Furthermore, the folder can manually be removed
     '  while program is running!
     dirLOC = deeFAULT$ + "DET_P" + FPG$ + "_files"
     On Error Resume Next  ' to bypass access error
     RmDir dirLOC  '** Path/File access error
     On Error GoTo 0
   Next PG

So,the folder specification in each case is absolutely correct,
 and as i indicate,i can manually delete/remove any one of them
 WHILE THE PROGRAM IS RUNNING (and creating more).

  How the heck can this be fixed?
