i just tested file-commit and file area locking in xp mode beneath windows 7,
Microsoft Office 2007 Professional Plus, and if failed miserably.
file-commit doesn't function at all. should you extend a file by producing on the stop, then do a file-commit, then examine the file duration with find-first, you get the old (improper) file length. in other words,
Office 2010 Professional Key, file-commit isn't going to do anything.
additionally, region-locking does not operate reliably. often it functions,
Office 2010 Download, but sometimes attempting to lock a area which is already locked by one more method results in a "general failure" error (31) rather than a proper "sharing error" (32).
you can get testlock here:
to use it just open two xp mode command-prompt windows (or one xp mode command-prompt window and a single windows seven command-prompt window), and after that in one of them do:
testlk32 d:\somefolder\ auto2
then,
Office Professional Plus, when it prompts you to accomplish so, do the identical command from the other command-prompt window.
if you try this with two windows seven command prompts, all exams pass.
if you use an xp command-prompt window in xp mode, using the shared folder on the windows 7 generate (mapped to a drive letter by way of "net use") then check six (file commit) constantly fails,
Office 2010 Standard Key, and checks 5&6-b and 7-b (shared modify access, file commit, and area locking, 2-session) fail intermittently.
