Yeah that caused me to lose a lot of time too. My workaround was like this :

lcExcelFile = "myxls.xls"
oExcel = createobject("Excel.application")
WITH oExcel
*....
ENDWITH
myHandle = fopen(lcExcelFile,12)
do while myHandle < 0
  myHandle = fopen(lcExcelFile,12) && Try to open temp xls read-write
enddo
=fclose(myHandle) && Excel released it
Release oExcel
