File in use Dialog box
 
When I open a file that is opened on the network by someone else it is not
giving me the correct name of who has the file open. Where does the name it
is giving me come from?

I believe that it is the value in ToolsOptionsGeneral - User name. To make
any use of this you have to ensure people properly maintain it.
