If you get an error saying it in use by another process, then it is in use by another processor. Try getting hold of FileMon from Microsoft to see who has the file locked.

I downloaded fileMon from microsoft! i know who has the file locked, (another program that write to the file and lock it) and my program can't access to read from file but excel access to read from file in mode read-only

You can try using FileShare.ReadWrite perhaps?
