Hello.

As you know in windows we could have exclusively locked files.
I mean files that is opened by some application and could not be
opened nor for read nor for write access.
I need to copy one such file (while application works, because after
it closed file deleted).
Is it possible to do in windows xp/2003?
Maybe some special api available?...

WBR,
Dmitry.
