I'm using a FileWatcher object to trap changes on some user config
files we store on a shared lan drive.  When I recognize the file has
changed on the network, I move it to the local machine where its being
watched and copy the new one over.  All that works just fine.

The only thing I'd like to do is inform the user, not only that the
file changed, but who the last person was to change it on the network.
Does windows store this information ?  I wasn't sure if this was even
possible.

I do not know whether or not this is possible, but I would consider it a security risk if it was possible to determine the name of the user who is currently locking the file.
