From what you describe, no, you can't do that. When your application
(Paradox, in this case) opens the file, if it doesn't explicitly tell
NetWare that it knows what it's doing, NetWare locks the file and will not
let anything remove it while it is open. In order to remove it, you have to
first clear the connection(s) that have it open, then you can delete it
normally.

I'm tired of receiving crap in my mailbox, so the E-mail address has been
munged to foil the junkmail bots. Humans will figure it out on their own.
