if the file you are trying to load is opened in some other application, try to save and close it. Then reload the script.

Hi,

Which file format it is?

you can use Filebasename() function to extract the filename.

HI,

You are referring to a temporary file which is created in windows hwn original file is opened by some one either in same PC or in network.

Check if that file is being used or load from original file.Try closing all application running and do reload.Hope this helped.
