Who has opened a file?

[paul@hed.de]

Hi,
my C# dotnet application runs into problems when it cannot open some
of its files. When this happens on the customer's computer I would
like to display a friendly message that explains the problem and that
states the name of the offending process. I thinking of a virus or spy
scanner or possibly a backup software.

In the internet there are various debugging tools that can show this
information. But using these tools is far beyond most of my customers.

So, is there anything I could integrate into my application without
too much effort?

Thanks in advance!

Paul Hoepping.

You could put your file open procedure in a try/catch block and raise a
message box showing any exception - I'm not sure how user friendly some of
the messages might be though.
