[420]

Public Function FileInUse(ByVal sFile As String) As Boolean
    If System.IO.File.Exists(sFile) Then
        Try
            Dim F As Short = FreeFile()
            FileOpen(F, sFile, OpenMode.Binary, OpenAccess.ReadWrite, OpenShare.LockReadWrite)
            FileClose(F)
        Catch
            Return True
        End Try
    End If
End Function

A function I wrote a while ago. I hope you like it.
