Re: File "is being used by "another user" error message

by John McGhie <john@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 13, 2008 at 08:50 PM

We can't help with that one (other than to tell you to wait...)

It's one symptom of a known bug, for which there is a fix in the Office
Service Release 12.1.0 which is due out soon.

Don't get confused: 12.0.1 is the hotfix, 12.1.0 is the one we are all
waiting for.

The service release may not FULLY address the problem.  There's a patch
needed at the Apple end as well.  Which we're waiting on.

Sorry
