Hi Sergey.
I put in the Line Set TablValidate to 7 .....2 days ago.
I have checked the error log and there have been no 'File in Use' messages
for the past 2 days . (Up to then there was an average of 4 to 5 appearing per day)
This looks as if it may have solved the problem....

I was reluctant initially to put this command in as I was not sure if the cure could be worse than the disease...but nothing elae was working so I went ahead...
Do you know if there is any downside to using this command ?

Thanks again for yoour help

Regards,
Gerard
