Determining Whether File In Use in System 8.6

Hello,

Does you know of a scripting addition that will determine quickly whether or not a file is in use in System 8.6? The "info for" call in the Standard Additions of System 9.04 has a "busy status" property in its returned file information record. This works well enough in System 9.04, but is not available in System 8.6.
