the reason is that the file is locked by the application - open a file in MS word and try to delete it from system - you will see it is locked by MS word. do the same with a text file using notepad, you can delete a text file even if it is opened in notepad..thats why the auto checkin wont open for the files which are opened and locked by external applications..

Hi Harish

Have the same sometimes.

Know that there is an issue if open a wordfiles for edit and close it it without doing any changes.

Text taken from SAP Note 990018

"If you check out a Microsoft Word file and close the file without making any changes, the file will not be checked-in automatically.

Technical Restriction: This is due to restriction from Microsoft Word as Word application does not provide the correct notifications on the status of the document.You need to manually check-in the file. "
