Anyone that can help, it's MUCH appreciated: Here is my situation. I have a VB.Net program that multiple user's use. Sometimes there is a problem when one user has opened one of the reports to read it while the other (in the program) tries to regenerate the report resulting int the typical "File in Use" error. What I would like to do is be able to display to the user WHO has the report open so they can contact them to have them close it. I've looked in the FileInfo object but it doesn't seem to have anything tied to the user that has that file open.
It seems like it has to be possible. I did a little test by having someone open a file and then I went to Start>Run and attempted to open the same file and it gave me the "File in Use" error which said <filename> is locked for editing by '<name>' Do you want to... That <name> is exactly what I need, but I need to find out where that <name> field is stored so I can access it through my vb.net application. Any ideas?
