Hi ,

I m Using The File.CreateText(sFilePath) Function And From Time To Time I m
Getting This Error

The process cannot access the file "c:\Temp\Test.txt" because it is being
used by another process

and after refresh every thing ok and after one more refresh i m getting the
error once again and so on .

what i m missing ?

Best Regards ,

Tiraman :-)

Create the file using 'System.IO.StreamWriter' directly. If this
doesn't help, turn off all virus scanners and try again.

Hi Tiraman,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue.
From your description, I understand that when you use the File.CreateFile
and then write to the file, you got the error message "file ... is being
used by another process error".
Have I fully understood you? If there is anything I misunderstood, please
feel free to let me know.

I agree with Herfried's suggestion. In addition, I think you may also try
to use the FileMon tool to monitor the specified the file created by
File.CreateFile to see what process is access the specified file.
