The only time I've seen your described behavior is when multiple programs
access the file at the same time. Anti-virus on server and/or client,
indexing applications such as Google desktop, and on demand backup tools.

Hello:

      My app does a lot of printing using the Adobe PDF printer driver.  I
need two copies of most files.  One goes in a repository (for audit
purposes).  One goes into an E-mail out directory structure.  I generate the
PDF and then copy it using CopyFile().

      Sometimes, the copy does not work, but only sometimes.  I am thinking
that maybe it is a race condition between CopyFile and Adobe Acrobat (since
the office has the setting to view the generated PDF).

      Are there any issues with copying an open file or Adobe opening a file
that is already open (presumably for read access)?

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
