Using Templates on a busy web server

I am considering using Aspose.Cells on a busy web server for reports. I was wondering if I will run into problems using template Excel files. For example, if 4 users are running the same report at the same time the web server will attempt to open the template Excel file on the webserver 4 times, populate it with data as my code directs, and then furnish the result to the browser.

I expect that when the web server attempts to open a file that is already open in another process, it will error out saying the file is already in use. But I am hoping I am wrong here. Does Aspose.Cell open the template file without locking the file for another threads use?

Hi Jeff,

Aspose.Cells uses File.OpenRead method to open Excel files. So the template file won't be locked.
