Question

If I have the file opened as read only and shared as read/write and someone with askSam for Windows tries to pack the file, will I have a problem?


Answer

No, askSam can only pack a file that is opened in exclusive mode. If you have the askSam file opened the user can not pack the file until you close the file.

"askSam is an essential part of my software tool chest. I can research and collect data from anywhere and any source. Once it is in askSam I can edit, rearrange, organize, and search the information easily. Then I can present it and make it totally useful for other people via the web or CD. Fantastic!"
