Bob,
Thanks for the reply. I have read that paper before a few times (as one
may need to in this situation). It does address performance issues on
accessing records, but not in the creation, deletion, or writing of
records which is what I was looking for. My instinct tells me that
there is marginal difference between the two.
I cache the handles returned from DmNewRecord so that I don't ever have
to call DmQueryRecord again while I interact with the paged area. So,
when I need to access memory, I just lock record handles. This works
very well, is fast, and I haven't found anything telling me it's bad
practice, so I am running with it.
Cheers,
Mike
