below is my procedure (the important parts).Simply, it creates a file with the client's ID number and today's date number if no file exists (and in this case, we are creating a new file).Then, it loops through all files in the folder (in this case there will only be the one we just created), and opens the files and imports the data (since we just created the file, it will be empty). In other scenarios, there could be 3 files out there in the folder with 10 records each. This procedure would open these files and import their data.The problem I am running into is when there is NO files in the folder, so it creates one. Then when it gets down to reading the files, it finds the file just added, but throws an IOException: "The process cannot access the file "C:20200_8.bocx because it is being used by another process.It happens on the line USING SR AS NEW STREAMREADER(F.FULLNAME).So I'm sure the problem is that the new file that is being created is still open. How would I go about closing it?Right now the remedy is to let the program crash, then restart and it will load just fine.

I have a very weird problem. In the constructor of my class, I create a new directory if it doesn't exist. After that the method Debug is being called from another class. But then it gives a error that the file is being used.When the directory already exists, I don't get this error when calling the method Debug.
This the

edit: It get the same error if the directory exists but the files don't. So I guess I am forgetting a important step during those if statements.
When I load my solution and compile it after first starting the IDE, everything works as expected. After changing source and recompiling, I get the following compile error:
Error 11 Unable to copy file "objDebugCAMDRS.Library.dll" to "binCAMDRS.Library.dll". The process cannot access the file 'binCAMDRS.Library.dll' because it is being used by another process. CAMDRS.Library.
After closing Visual Studio 2005 and reopening the solution I can compile again successfully. This is an old solution that has been fine for a long time. I just recently changed computers and reinstalled everything.I am running win XP Pro sp2, Visual Studio 2005 sp1.
My program writes to a .txt file (and this is the ONLY program that writes to it) in a thread (with lowest priority), but every now and then it gets an error "The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file" when it executes this code: swLog.WriteLine(sPacket).Other program reads from the file, not write to it, why do I get this error, and how can I get around it, or what shall I do when I get this error since I can't write to the file ?
I've got an import program that reads csv files and imports the data to a sql server database. After the import I call a send email procedure which takes some arguments including the two files and adds them as attachments to a mail message, then sends the email:
I'm trying to open any file using Process.Start, but every time I try to open a file that isn't an executable the program crashes... This is the code I'm currently using:
vb.net Private Sub ListView1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListView1.MouseDoubleClick For Each lvi As ListViewItem In ListView1.SelectedItems Process.Start(path & "" & lvi.Text) Next End Sub
Path is a string that contains the selected folder path, and lvi is the text of the list view item (each item contains the icon and name of each file). It is working fine for .exe files, I was just wondering if it's JUST for .exe files...
I am parsing many files after I click the button.I want to display the process name when I parse a file. So I am going to display it as
Label3.Text = "Parsing File " + FileName
The problem is the screen is freeze if too many files will be parsed. So designing an event to display the file name that is processed is a good idea. But I haven't any experence on it.

i am trying to open an external executable file during runtime using a process component and the process.start() method. I've been testing out my code with various executable files on my C: drive....some work and some do not work. I've been able to successfully open Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Excel, and Notepad; however, when I try opening various other executables the following exception gets thrown:
A first chance exception of type 'System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception' occurred in System.dll
I cannot figure out why some programs open just fine while others cause the above exception to be thrown.
I try to open a text file and write in some text, when i run the program it says the following error:The process cannot access the file 'D:VB projectsCategory_Characteristics.txt' because it is being used by another process.

How can i access a file through FileStream which is being used by a window service. Actually i am trying to access a file which is also being used by our window service. I need to read data from this file. I am using below code but also getting following error:
Code: Dim fs1 As IO.FileStream = New IO.FileStream(psPath, IO.FileMode.Open, IO.FileAccess.Read, IO.FileShare.Read) Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = New IO.StreamReader(fs1) sData = sr.ReadToEnd
Error: The process cannot access the file 'FILENAME' because it is being used by another process.
I tried changing FileShare.Read parameter to FileShare.None but it didn't work out. I also read below post which says that it is not possible but i think there is a way to read it like if you open a file through Firefox but still window service is accessing it.
I am working with saving and deleting images. What i really want to do is check and see if an image exists in the destination folder and if it does automatically overwrite it. i couldnt figure that out so i figured i would look to see if the file was there if it is Delete it then write the new file..The issue is i keep getting this error.The process cannot access the file "FileName" because it is being used by another process.

Im simply trying to load a file on my network. The file is a database file for access.. This code opens the file on my computer. However on the four computers tested 2 of them throw an error stating that the user canceled the operation. However the user didn't do anything. The error is thrown automatically. The other two are working perfectly fine.
Trying to create a button that when clicked will check to see if a certain process image is running and if that process is running give the process focus. If the process is not running then start the application.
The process cannot access the file 'C:UsersJoshuaDocumentsTest1.txt' because it is being used by another process.Now the Problem. When i step through my code, it will do as intended, e.g. clear all contents of test1.txt. when i run it at run time it throws this error. The reason for it throwing an error is the text file is reading string, int, string, and the txt file has a string including in the int part, so i'm making it so you can empty a corrupt file.

I have created a Windows service in VS 2005 that monitors a folder for XML files, reads some data elements from the XML using XmlDocument, then copies the files to another location. I find that when I drop 2 or more XML files into the folder simultaneously, it processes them with no problems, but when I drop the same files into the folder one at a time, I will get an error on the second file: "The process cannot access the file <my file> because it is being used by another process." If I stop my service, restart it, and drop the second file into the folder again, it works the second time. I am confident that no other program is accessing this file at the same time as my service. My impression is that the processing of file # 1 is somehow not releasing all of the resources, leading to the processing of file # 2 mistakenly thinking that it can't access that second file.

I am trying to write a Windows Script that will allow me to monitor the following: That 2 x seperate but specific processes within Component Services "Running Processes" list are currently running and have not reset within the past hour. If I already know the PID, then I can retrieve the CreationDate (I assume which I can use to check for restarts? or is this the actual process creation/installation date) for each specific process, however if a restart occurs the PID will change and my script needs to know what the new PID is without me telling it!
I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).
I am trying to delete a file (malicious file) that places itself in the system32 directory. When i try to delete that file it shows cannot access file that is being used by another process. I found out that the process that uses the file is winlogon.exe . How can i remove this handle from the winlogon.exe process. I want to remove this from the winlogon.exe process. Can anybody suggest any ideas for this.
