Why CreateFile failed for opening an existing file ?
I use this code and CreateFile returned that the file g_sFileName doesn't
exists, but it really exists !
What is wrong ?
HANDLE hFile;
    hFile = CreateFile(g_sFileName.c_str(),
                    GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE,// open for reading
                    FILE_SHARE_READ,           // share for reading
                    NULL,                      // no security
                    OPEN_EXISTING,             // existing file only
                    FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,     // normal file
                    NULL);                     // no attr. template

    if (hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
    {
            ShowMessage(SysErrorMessage(GetLastError()));
    }
