I beg to differ: the operation which interrupted itself because it found a file in use knows very well that it was interrupted. So, it would be in the best position to do something instead of just quitting graciously. You later suggestion "leave the working copy in a state of mixed revisions" is exactly what I as user would expect from it: "hey, error! I couldn't finish my job bcoz file X is in use, just close the other app then try updating again". And I could swear it was like this before, I never had to cleanup even though I always forgot DLLs in use... I just can't test it because the only machine with a 1.6 SVN I have is a server and doesn't have Word (and will never have) - any idea how to mark a file "in use" on Windows Server 2003? Notepad/Wordpad doesn't cut it. Thanks a lot, JC
