I really don't care if Scribus allows you to open a file more than once or not, even if I canot think of a good reason why somebody would deliberately do that. If it wants to stop you, there are several methods: 1) Silent refusal (emacs) 2) Loud refusal (Excel) 3) Allow only read-only copies (Word) Again, I don't care. However, if it allows you to open a file more than once, it should give you a warning before it lets you go ahead. That is my only requirement. _________________________________________________________________ In a rush?
