Checking if a file has copied completly

Hi,

I have an App that scan a "hot" folder looking for input files. This  
works fine if the file being dragged into the folder is on the local  
machine (since it just does a move of the file). However if a file is  
dragged from another machine on the LAN (and it's Copied), the App  
sees the file as soon as it appears in the Folder and starts  
processing a partial file.

My question is:

Is there anyway in RunRev to check if the file has been completely  
copied?

Any other suggestions on how to get around this problem would be  
greatly appreciated.

All the Best
Dave
