I get an IO error 32 from running this script with the file located under a folder/directory. If I move the file to the root C:, the script runs fine.

You may not have permissions in that \Smart\ folder.
Does it work if you run as Admin?

It might be shared, but sharing does not always provide permissions for individual users.

I was running as Admin. I did share the folder. What else could it be?

Random thoughts:

1. What operating system, what version of Macro Scheduler?
Possible Vista annoyance?

2. Is file in \Smart\ folder hidden or system file?

3. When does error come up? Single step through with Watch List values, and ID when error occurs.

4. Folder may have permissions, but how about individual file?
Hmm, running as Admin, so that can probably be ruled out......

???

Error code 32 is a sharing violation. Therefore some other process already has exclusive access to the file you are trying to open. You aren't allowed to open it. The only way would be to ensure the other process has released the lock, or has closed first.
