A long while ago I had a similar problem. It ONLY occured on NT4 though, 
not on W95. I had a brief exchange with Guido on the matter and it turned 
out he couldn't reproduce it on his NT system either ... so I abandoned any 
effort to track it down further.

IIRC I got things working in the end by explicitly closing wfile ... but I 
went through some contortions to get there and I may not have RC'd. 
Unfortunately I no longer have the source to what I did then so this can be 
no more than a rough direction for you to look in ....
