Thanks, Ed. I normally use svrmgr.exe to view these type of things, but I had just ran across this winfile.exe tip, and thought it might be useful, too. Do you know how long NT continues to say a file is opened by a user, even after they log out? Files show up in svrmgr.exe for quite awhile even after a user has logged off. (NT4, SP3)
