Hi,
I am getting the error
"The process cannot access the file "C:\Documents and
Settings\piyush\Desktop\200309181051.ktl" because it is being used by
another process."
when I try to open this file using fileopen in VB.Net
I am very sure that the file is not being used by any other process
as I tried to open other files without success.Also I rebooted my
machine & again tried to open the file.but its giving me same error.
Does anybody know what the problem is?
Thanks for your help
Piyush
