Henke Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I'm looking for a AutoIT function or Windows API (DLL function) that tells if a certain file used by one or more other processes. My script is looking for new files sent to the server by FTP and I do not want to start reading from these incoming files until the FTP process has finished writing to them. Any ideas anybody? Many Thanks... Henke
