Are you sure your client is not using a Samba share for the folder where you are renaming files. If so is the version of samba the same as at the working sites.

But thanks for the help regards Vik On Fri, Jul 16, 2010 at 3:30 AM, John Bird <johnkb...@paradise.net.nz> wrote: Also Windows will prevent deleting or renaming a file it thinks is in use. Check the open files section under Control Panel/administrative tools. Sometimes even if a file is not listed there windows will still complain about it being in use. Examples will be any file opened for reading by another program, or I have seen it sometimes even when the file has been recently closed. Open Office documents cannot be attached into in email if they are still open in the program etc. I have always suspected some caching issue might be behind these oddities. If you can't rename, then plan B might be to copy the file and then overwrite the original. On some sites I have seen a sort of similar issue - a Copyfile command might either silently fail, or might end up with the destination file having the current date and time on it rather than the original...Only seems to be an issue on certain networks, and then only sometimes.

We are using a Banking application where our client normal do End of day processing during end of day. During that time we process lot of file and rename it say for example from xyx.txt to xyx.001 and xyz.002 etc. But one of my client says he is getting error while the file getting renamed. I just checked all the read access rights credential and everything seems alright. And there is no locking too.It dont happen for him in every location except in one branch. I just wonder if anyone ever come across this problem since i am not able to figure out what could be the reason other than file rights Regards Vik ________________________________ _______________________________________________ NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi mailing list Post: delphi@delphi.org.nz Admin: http://delphi.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi Unsubscribe: send an email to delphi-requ...@delphi.org.nz with Subject: unsubscribe _______________________________________________ NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi mailing list Post: delphi@delphi.org.nz Admin: http://delphi.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi Unsubscribe: send an email to delphi-requ...@delphi.org.nz with Subject: unsubscribe -- vikas
