I am creating a file with identifier+dateandtime, when on multiple requests
at the same time, it fails, it either says file in use , can't be deleted?
can any one of you suggest, how to uniquely define a file name??

Thanks,
Venkat.
 
You can use System.IO.Path.GetTempFileName() to have the system generate an
unique file name.

It was my mistake to assume that you were talking about temp files. If you
really want an unique filename and you don't care about the size or
structure you can use the static method Guid.NewGuid() this will return you
a new instance of the Guid class use the ToString() method of this class and
use the yielded value as an unique file name.
