I created a process where the user can move and rename the images... but I am discovering that the images are locked by the application. With 50 users, I can't know that they are all not looking at this image I am trying to rename... Does the image have to remain opened by this class in order to show it? Or can the connection be closed after the image is displayed?

To reproduce:
Open the graphics demo for the image gallery. Make sure to select a folder with images so you have a preview of them.
Now, using Windows Explorer browse to that folder and attempt to edit the image.

Windows will tell you the file is IN USE, PLEASE TRY AGAIN. ]]> Visual DataFlex Graphics Library David Martinko http://support.dataaccess.com/Forums/showthread.php?50614-Images-are-locked-while-loaded-in-preview.
