Filewatcher even not firing on save as from excel

When creating a file in excel and saving it to a directory that is
being watched by filewatcher using Save As, the filewatcher created
event doesn't fire.

It works fine for text files, but for word, excel...pretty much any
office application, it's not firing. Anybody ever run into this?

Thanks

I have a filewatcher program that is working syncronously (which is how I want it to work). But my program will handle whatever files are in the folder at the time it runs. So when I drop 15 files in the folder at once, the event kicks of 15 times - even though all the files were processed in the 1st event. This is fine, it just won't find any files in the folder for 14 times. But if I drop 600 files in the folder at once, it will...

What exactly is FileWatcher doing? When you drop 100 files in a folder it is watching, it normally will fire of the event 100 times. In my case, I do all my processing on the first event so I don't need to reinitialize all my variables for each file. Normally 50 - 100 files will be dropped in the folder at a time. If I get an error, in my code it moves out to my try/catch code in the service - handle it and then exit. Then the next...
