API CommitUpdate fails
I am attempting to pop up a user form in response to a state transition so that the user can enter some data that will be used to set variables on the file. I have added a hook for EdmCmdType.EdmCmd_PreState and in OnCmd the code looks like this:
EdmCmdData[] cmdData = (EdmCmdData[])ppoData;
int sourceStateID = cmdData[0].mlLongData1;
IEdmState6 sourceState = (IEdmState6)vault.GetObject(EdmObjectType.EdmObject_State, sourceStateID);
if (sourceState.Name.Equals("Acquiring Oracle Number"))
{
int fileID = cmdData[0].mlObjectID1;
OracleData data = new OracleData();
OracleNumberEntryForm form = new OracleNumberEntryForm(data);
DialogResult result = form.ShowDialog();
object obj = vault.CreateUtility(EdmUtility.EdmUtil_BatchUpdate);
IEdmBatchUpdate2 updateUtility = (IEdmBatchUpdate2)obj;
IEdmVariableMgr6 varMgr = (IEdmVariableMgr6)vault;
object oraNumVarName = "ORACLE_ITEM_NUMBER";
object oraDescVarName = "PART_DESCRIPTION";
IEdmVariable5 oraNumVar = varMgr.GetVariable(ref oraNumVarName);
IEdmVariable5 oraDescVar = varMgr.GetVariable(ref oraDescVarName);
object oraNumVal = data.Number;
object oraDescVal = data.Description;
updateUtility.SetVar(fileID, oraNumVar.ID, ref oraNumVal, "", (int)EdmBatchFlags.EdmBatch_Nothing);
updateUtility.SetVar(fileID, oraDescVar.ID, ref oraDescVal, "", (int)EdmBatchFlags.EdmBatch_Nothing);
EdmBatchError2[] errors = new EdmBatchError2[10];
Array errArray = (Array)errors;
int errCount = updateUtility.CommitUpdate(out errArray, null);
if (errCount != 0)
{
handleCommitErrors(errArray);
}
}
If I select a checked in file and move it through the transition, the OnCmd is called as expected, the form pops up and all is well until the CommitUpdate method is called. The call fails with one error being returned. My handleCommitErrors method shows the following details:
Using ProcessMonitor I don't see any other process other than SolidWorks trying to access the file:

==============================
SW successfully opens, closes, locks and unlocks the file prior to the CommitUpdate command. At that point, the ACCESS DENIED occurs.
I added a bit of code to check the LockedByUser property of the file and it reports that the file is locked by my user.
Do I need to programmatically check out the file in order to call SetVar and CommitUpdate?
