reading a file

is there a way i can read a file that someone else has exclusive access to useing a streamreader thanks chad
No, not really. If they opened the file exclusively then it's opened, well, exclusively. It needs to be opened with
FileShare.Reador some flag containingFileShare.Readin order for you to read it. This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. Software Design Engineer Developer Division Sustained Engineering Microsoft [My Articles] -
