- The subject line basically tells it all. I need to be able to detect
- via software (Turbo Pascal), whether or not someone is using a file that
- my software is attempting to act on. My program automatically moves
- files to pre-determined directories on the Novell but sometimes someone
- is in the middle of accessing the same file on another station and that
- action causes my software to freak out. I would really appreciate the
- assistance. Thanks (in advance)!
