>>Does anyone know of an API(s) or messaging function that would allow you to request an enumeration of the open files on a network server running win 2000 dataserver ?

>>The idea would be to determine which users have files open exclusively on the server or to know which/ how many are open when you need to do maintenance etc.
>>
>>This way you could alert the user that 'User Sally at IP address 192.168.1.126 has this file open with exclusive access' and they could do something about it or wait until later when sally isnt using it exclusively anymore.
