    <p>I have a function that is reading a file and adding some of the string in a list and returning this list. Because I wanted that nobody and nothing could change, delete or whatever the current file that I was reading I locked it. Everything was fine, I did it somehow like this:</p> <pre><code>public static List&lt;string&gt; Read(string myfile) { using (FileStream fs = File.Open(myfile, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.None)) { //read lines, add string to a list //return list } } </code></pre> <p>Thats fine. Now I have another function in another class that is doing stuff with the list and calling other functions and so on. Now sometimes I want to move the file that I was reading. And here is the problem: because Im now in a new function and the function <code>Read(string myfile)</code> is already processed, there is no more lock in the file.</p> <pre><code>//in another class public static void DoStuff(/*somefile*/) { List&lt;string&gt; = Read(/*somefile*/); //the file (somefile) is not more locked! //do stuff if (something) Move(/*somefile*/) //could get an error, file maybe not more there or changed... } </code></pre> <p>So another function/user could change the file, rename it, deleting it or whatever => Im not able to move this file. Or I will move the changed file, but I dont what that. If I would use threading, another thread with the same function could lock the file again and I could not move it.</p> <p>Thats why I somehow need to lock this file for a longer time. Is there an easy way? Or do I have to replace my <code>using (FileStream fs = File.Open(myfile, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.None)</code> code? Any suggestions? thank you</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
