I am trying to figure out how to determine if an existing file is already open by another process (over which I have no control). In this case, the other process is the ftp daemon: I am watching a particular directory for files to appear, and I want to be able to tell if an incoming file has been completely transferred. Is there a way to do this, besides watching to see if the file size changes? Thanks, Jason
