You need to figure out which file is in use and preferably who is using it. Can you instantiate your Error Handler before attempting to run FoxAudit?

BTW, I don't have experience with FoxAudit, I'm just trying to give the suggestions from the common sense.

>>>foxaudit error information:

>>>file in use
