Default Delete a "locked for editing file by..."

A couple more things to try:
http://contextures.com/xlfaqApp.html#ReadOnly
and
http://contextures.com/xlfaqApp.html#AlreadyOpen

Both from Debra Dalgleish's site.

If that file is on a network drive, you may have to ask your IT folks to reboot
that server.
