texte = On my site, I had a similar problem that ended up being random. I did a [purchase cart=[cart]] and then tried to access the resulting order file shortly therafter in the code. The cart ended up being "in-transit" if the server had any kind of load on it and so the order file didn't exist yet. I did a [WaitForFile file=Orders/[cart]] and the problem went away. I am not sure where in the process you are getting the error as I haven't watched this thread closely but would look at the possibility that your file is somehow "in-transit" at this point in your program. ymmv Larry Goodhew > Usually the cause is a MoveFile inside of an open OrderFile context... > > Good luck chasing it down... > > On Sep 3, 2004, at 9:59 AM, Tana Adams wrote: > > > I have the same problem as well.
