I am getting a File Reservation error when trying to open
an Excel spreadsheet that is on a common drive. It gives
the error: "xxxxx.xls is being modified by (ID) Open as
Read-Only or choose Notify when it is available" -- The
ID is the ID of the user who is actually trying to open
the file. So it is telling her that she can't modify the
file because she is in it. But she knows that she doesn't
have the file open on any other PC. If she closes Excel
and reopens it, sometimes it will let her into the file,
and sometimes she just has to keep trying and it will
eventualy let her in. Any ideas? If you want to respond
please remove the removethis portion. Thanks in advance.
