how to upload the document when i open it

Question

Hi, 

I want to achieve the target is that the document can a upload itself to a server. But when i used this code, it said that Being used by another process, so the process can not access this file.

FileStream stream = new FileStream(file, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read);

Is there any way  i read it to a FileStream?

Thank you!

Hi Tao636,

What's document you opened? As far as I know that Office suite (such as Excel, Word or PowerPoint) will not allow other program access the file when them open the specific file. And If you want to upload them to a server, you need close the document before you update it.
