[closed] Shared/locked files opened by another application

Post by dandv »

Could CompareIt! consider these files as read-only (and override the "Do not edit read-only files" to YES) instead of aborting with the "Failed to read source file!" message?

I frequently find myself text comparing files saved from Word, and I have to close the file in Word first, compare, then re-open the file in Word. Such files can be opened as read-only by other applications such as ExamDiff Pro.

Hope that helps,
Dan Dascalescu

Thank you for report. In fact I didn't noticed that. I will check and fix this.
