Maybe use fmShareExclusive when opening the file.
That name suggest you can only open if you are the only one?

I am checking for the existence of a file in my main program loop that runs
about 4 times a second waiting for keystrokes etc...
If I see the file exists, I just want to open the file, read it into a buffer
and process it.
This works most of the time, but every once in a while I get
EInOutErro
