Hi, could you try to copy or delete your file with a dos command (type cmd from Run item in the start menu)

 When trying to delete or move certain files in our file
 system, (even files we just created) we often get an error
 that states:
 
 Cannot Move/Delete File or Folder
 
 Cannot move/delete (filename). There has been a sharing
 violation. The source or destination file may be in use.
 
 
 We used to have a NT 4.0 Server and we would use
 FileManager to close all open instances of the file and
 then we could delete/move it, however, we are now using a
 Win2K Server and FileManager no longer exists. We are
 stuck! This occurs on files on our local machines as well
 sometimes.
 
 Can someone help?
 
 Thanks
