Hello,

I have tried to use INQUIRE with several specifiers(SHARE, WRITE, OPENED etc.) to try to find out if a specific file is in use by another application (opened), but I always get something like 'UNKNOWN'.
Is there a method do what I want?

Thanks,

Walter Kramer

INQUIRE won't do the job. Best thing to do is OPEN it and see if you get an error.
