Getting Rev to utilize Volume Shadow Services

[Derek Bump]

Chipp,

What I'm referring to is the file locking mechanism that is employed by 
the system.  This mechanism is traditionally used when attempting to 
prevent 2 processes from opening the same file and essentially 
overwriting each other's data.

But I'll test your suggestion out to see if it resolves the problem.  If 
it does, it saves me the time trying to copy the file first.
