Under Windows environment, we are using Kermit's Server to
receive files from a remote site. Concurrently with executing the
Kermit server (using a *.pif), another (Windows) application is
running and is looking to process these downloaded files as soon
as each file is done downloading.
while Kermit is active which waits until the kermit file is
received to process the new data. This application determines
when kermit is done with receiving the file by trying to open the
file using exclusive mode, i.e., deny write and read access to
other applications.
This data processing application runs fine on two of our three
PCs but on the third PC the data processing application can open
the file and even
delete the file while kermit is still receiving the file.
Is it possible to tell kermit that the file being received can
not be
accessed by any other application? Note, MS Word does this when
editing
a file contary to Windows NotePad which allows others to access
and
delete a file while being edited.
Thanks in advance,
