If the file is opened exclusively then you cannot.  If the file is 
opened with shared read then the question is if the Add function is 
trying for exclusive access.  If so you could try calling CopyFile to 
make a copy and then Add the copy.

Note that most functions which open files open them for exclusive 
access.
