Hi Mark,

This wouldn't be the program I wrote, would it? ;-) It originally used a 3rd party tool, not Reader, but this sounds suspiciously familiar....

Without seeing the program it's hard to be sure, but how about deleting the file at initialization rather than at cleanup?

I ran into Rick Semann at the VS 2005 launch event at McCormick Place last fall. As you probably know, he left not long after I did and is now with Microsoft on the BizTalk support team.
