Sharepoint 2010: I have code to determine if a particular workbook is checked out from our Sharepoint site. However, since user get the updated file as a link they often open it to edit, or open directly to edit from Sharepoint, by-passing checkout. In these instances, the code will return True for cancheckout, but either the code to checkout the file will return a server error, or when the file is opened will return the 'file in use' dialog.
Since the files are not really files, but blobs inside SQL Server accessed as url's - is there a way to determine if the file is opened for edit w/out being checked out?
Hope this makes sense.
