Greg, I do understand and I have done my homework with regards to the file lock even before I posted here. I apologize for not providing all the info all at once. I find that if I do, a lot is missed so I provide as it becomes pertinent.
In performing my test, I created another share identical to what you see above and made sure that no one else is connected to it. I simply dragged and dropped a file from a Windows 7 to the share and I got error 0x80070021 on the following cases. 01) copying a new file into the share 02) overwriting an existing file Creating a new file does not seem to show this issue--as expected. Like you, I also appreciate how much Rowland has helped me. I have been on that end of the line before and I know the hard work and patience it needs. regards, j On Fri, Oct 11, 2013 at 8:09 AM, Gregory Sloop <gr...@sloop.net> wrote: > > > JY> Rowland, > > JY> I did see those from my searches as well.
