Hi,

When Word starts to process and creates the document, it is requesting a
virus scan, but I think that's within Word though. If it is the Anti
Virus software kicking in how would I go about stopping this or better
still check for this situation within the app and correct it by either
renaming the file or deleting it, assuming I can remove this 986 Error
"Sharing voliation".

-->Hi Duncan,
-->
-->Its not your virus checker kicking in is it? I have major problems

-->Hi guys
-->
-->I'm writing an app in VB.net that places data from a 
-->database to a word 2000 document, this all works quite well. 
-->The problem comes after I have saved a document several 
-->times, (using "save as" within the app) due to changes 
-->whilst developing, it then locks the file and the directory, 
-->saying that the file is in use or there has been a sharing 
-->voliation, which there is not, (not that I can see in the 
-->task manager) no instance of word running.
-->
-->The directory and documents are stored on a Win2K server and 
-->the app is on WinXP Pro. I end up having to reboot the XP 
-->machine to clear this voliation. Is there a better way, or 
-->better still why is this so called so voliation happening.
-->
-->Your thoughts please.
-->
-->Regards
