>Hi, > >Sounds like you open the file on one computer and keep it opened while another program tries to read it. That's not supported in windows and dos. In win95 it is built-in, as I recall. Dos needs to have "device = share.exe" in its config.sys This will enable an interrupt dos programs can use. The interrupt will maintain the opened file, and all programs that want to use the file are being fooled by a virtual file handle, and all I/O commands, etc. are maintained by the interrupts. Some1, please correct me if I'm wrong, this is what I concluded, but certainly do not know for sure. Ralf Nieuwenhuijsen nieuwen at xs4all.nl
