Title:
Using long filenames as Alias name
Another question,
I have a file that is used throughout my application called 'EXTRACTFILES'. That is the filename and I am also using it as the alias name.
This file is used throughout my program, from one process to another. As I work with a file, I usually close it once I am done with it. This 'EXTRACTFILES' table gets closed too. Once the next process starts and tries to reuse this file, it will tell me that it is already open. Seems like if the files is open, the process returns an error stating that it isn't and if it isn't open it returns an error stating that it is already in use. I always check to see if a file is open before using it. So I am not sure what the problem is. Someone suggested the fact that it is a long filename.
Anyone have any suggestions????
Thanks.
