Copy/move file which are not currently in use.

Hello experts,
I'm doing a shell script that able to copy or move files.

My situation is i have a drive ( lets say its S drive) where its receive all the files from mainframe

i need to copy all the file from S drive to T drive. but only those files that are finished copied from mainframe and not in use by other applications.
- i need to check it and
- i need to create the log files for every copy or move process.

my coding look like this

cd /cygdrive/s/Files
for FILES in ./*.*
do
temp=`basename $FILES`
echo "$temp ">> /cygdrive/s/LogFiles/OriginalFiles.rtf

#Copy files from S drive to T drive
cp $FILES /cygdrive/t/CopyFile1/$FILES
done
unset temp


But the coding above takes all the files that's currently in use and copying files into log.
Anyone can help me in this???
