Hallo,
I use the function shown below to load textfiles to a buffer for later to show the text in a text box.
Usually it works fine, but in some cases the file can not be opened (handle hFile=0) and the no text is read. As a test I have tried
to open and the close the file ( by the standard Open /Close Fortran statements) before I apply the CreateFile function to ensure the file is
not locked somwhere else in the program. Open/close is ok, but the CreateFile function do not always succed in opening it.
When I open the textfile with Notepad, it always looks OK.
Looking forward to get a clue from somebody out there....

hFile = CreateFile(szFileName, GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ, &
NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL)
