Check out the fmShareExclusive for TFileStream.
What the other user gets will depend on what application they are using to
try and open the file. If it's yours, you can handle this the way you want.

Thanks for this pointer, seems exactly what I need. Do I have to do anything
extra to lock the file with the first open, as when I try on a peer to peer
with a laptop connecting to a remote drive (which is my PC's local drive),
the second user can open the file no problem?
