Chuck,
Well that supposes that the Locked command is not accurate. If that's wrong
I'm not sure how to prove that. And that would be a much more profound
problem, I think. But perhaps. I'm just assuming the issue is with the
Locked By command.
To be clear my method tests for Locked first:
Case of
:() // some other stuff to validate the pointer
:(Locked($table_p->))
// do the locked record stuff
End case
Sure I can manipulate the records between locked and unlocked. The thing is
when I do those sorts of operations everything behaves as expected. This is
some sort of edge case, I just want to understand what the edge is.
