Hello all,
I am having a really hard time deleting an excel file that is located on a windows 2k3 cluster. The client is xp pro. the excel file contained macros and had multiple sheet and most of them were protected. I first copied all sheets and pasted special (values only) and then I deleted all the sheet and left only a blank sheet. I saved the file. then i tried to delete it but i get an error: Cannot delete <filename.xls: It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again. I ran oh.exe and the file was not listed as being locked. I downloaded WhoLockedMe.exe and that utilied didnt show the file being locked either. I also tried a util called delinvfile.exe to delete it but that didnt work either. Has anyone ran across this problem? If so, how did you resolve it? I appreciate any information anyone has on deleting this file. Thanks, Dan |
