Thanks, Frank. I'll check source code of the FalconView Shapefile overlay and see if it is requesting exclusive access. That could be the problem and I could change that as there is no need for FalconView to have exclusive access when it is only reading. On Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 8:40 PM, Frank

I've discovered that when I use OGRSFDriverRegistrar::Open to open a Shapefile, the file remains locked so that another process can't open the file until after I've called OGRDataSource::DestroyDataSource. Is there any way to prevent the file from being locked? Thanks! -- http://giscoder.blogs
