Title: RE: Deleting files on w2k

Unlike UNIX, NT will not let you delete a file while another process (ie. Oracle) has got a hold on it. I assume Win2K is the same.

Believe me, I wish... if we could get a bunch of Solaris servers plus the Oracle licenses for $75,000 we'd be there...  I'm stuck with this one.

I'm trying to test out backup and recovery on w2k.  However, I can't remove or rename a file while the database is running!  It says "file in use". 

Am I missing something or is there a way to force this? 

Thanks
