Have this code..
publicbool Method()
{
string fileName = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();//generate a unique filename
try
{
XmlDocument doc = newXmlDocument();

doc.LoadXml(xmlString);
doc.Save(fileName);
doc = null;
Reader = newXmlTextReader(fileName);//need to modify this for web application implementation
.................
}
catch (UnauthorizedAccessException AccessEx)
{
throw AccessEx;
}
catch (Exception Ex)
{
throw Ex;
}
finally
{
File.Delete(fileName);//this throws an exception that says
}

}

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file '
....................\bin\Debug\b4c2f977-b8a0-482c-9edd-f998030eac44' because it is being
used by another process.

I tried sleeping the thread for 10 seconds before calling delete but to no avail.

Let me know what am I doing wrong here..

Hi aldwinenriquez

As I understand it File.Delete simply calls the Win32 DeleteFile API
Also check if an ActiveX component your using has a handle on the file
Try this:

You need to remove the file from the array aswell.

My mistake, I forgot to close the textreader that was using that stream..:-)

Thanks guys..
