Hello. I have written a simple PRG to search my VCX files for certain pieces of text. However, if I run it while I have the class open in VFP(viewing code), I am unable to open the file. My program attempts an FOPEN(,0) on the file to determine if it can get readonly access to it, and this fails. The only thing I can guess, is that VFP opens source files in a non-sharable way(dwShareMode==0). Is there any way to have VFP open source files("vcx", "scx", etc.) in a shared way(dwShareMode==FILE_SHARE_READ)? The files on the file system are already read-only(VSS does this), so there are no data integrety issues. Ideas? Thanks.
