<div>Hello </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am using OGR to open "ESRI Shapefiles" and show the content of the .dbf file. If the file is already open by other application(ie: Excel) and I ask for the number of fields:</div>
<div><br>....<br>int fieldcount = layer->GetLayerDefn()->GetFieldCount();<br></div>
<div>I get 'fieldcount == 0'. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I`d like to know if there is a way to know if the .dbf is already open by other application.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>
