VB - How to find the user locking a file

[martin_d_bell]

Hi all,

I urgently need to know how to access the security attributes of a windows file to find the Windows Network User which has a file open and causes the file to be locked from other users.

If anyone can point me in the right direction or show me the code I need to use that would be excellent.

Thanks

Martin

What sort of file is it?

I have an article on my site here that deals with excel files:
