Open an Excell file using Workbook::Open

1
Hi,

I'm running 2 different executables:
One saving infinitely an excell file, Other Read it infinitely. time duration for Save/Open is randomally.

This 2 applications works fine differently, but together they cause a colligion.
(Can't save file. probably while other application reading it at the same time)

My questions are:
1. Do I need to protect from 2 different sources tends to same resource? (I know the keyword "semaphore" / "mutex")
2. How I can do it?? I write C++ in MFC environment

Thanks in advance!

You have read the MFC documentation on CMutex. Yes?
