Re: File Permission Error (8) when trying to delete file
Hi Don, I believe I heard Jean-Pierre explain this as having to do with the file system and delays in the file actually being closed. There are lots of things that cuase this delay while running in a Windows OS. This may be due to the fact that the file system does not know the file is closed yet. I believe the final solution was to check for the error, if detected, delay and retry.

Re: File Permission Error (8) when trying to delete file
The code is a subsection to source code of over 100 mb llb for our ultrasonic scanner. I am trying to figure out a creative way to form a simple version of the problem but whenever I craft a basic VI utilizing the delete fx, the delete operation works just fine So as of yet I am not able to reproduce the problem in a simple VI. That is why I thought some folks could shed light or suggest some things to look for. As I indicated in the initial post, I thought the origin of the problem could only be three possibilities: 1) the file is of the wrong name and therefore not found (although would probably get file not found error) but in fact it is the correct file and path, 2) the file is still open (it is not, I close it right before the delete fx), or 3)somehow some permissions have been set that do not allow a delete operation.

Don, could you post the code so we could have a look at it? thanks Brandon
