Subject: Problem Deleting files & the USE_ERROR exception & WHY

Message-ID: <ORDa6.8829$vH6.140011@news6-win.server.ntlworld.com> (raw)

I am currently using tasks to perform some file operations. Now I am having
a real problem in actually deleting a file at the current time... I am
opening the file i wish to delete which is performed successfully, I then
try to delete the file and it comes up with the io_exception use_error. Now
i am 99% sure that the file wasnt already open by another task, so I am
really puzzled as to what else can actually cause a use error, and is there
actually a certain amount of time that the program should wait after the
file was closed before it can re-open it and then delete it? and just to
comfirm, you dont have to close the file once you have deleted it right?
because theres nothing to close once its been deleted ???

Help would be appreciated, Thanks

Rich
