cannot access file

[Brian Smith]

Hi,

I am trying to write text data to an xml file via an
XMLTextWriter object. When I try to initialize the
XmlTextReader object, I get an IOException: The process
cannot access the file "path/filename here" because it is
being used by another process. Any idea what could be
causing this? Is it because the file is on IIS? Just to
note, I don't think it is IIS because I have already run
IISRESET and it did not help. I am using Visual
Studio .NET 2003 on a Windows 2000 Pro machine.

Thanks for any feedback you can give.

Did you try to to save this file outside of the website... ie.
c:/filename.txt?

Yes, I already thought that maybe IIS was doing something
with the file and tried saving it locally (not in
wwwroot). I still get the same error message.
