Using RTime65++ for DOS multiple users using a single table edit form (to
update a single column with expedite information).  We are receiving the
following sequence of messages several times daily.  "Internal Lock Error"
"Have all users disconnect from the database" "unavailable resource
encountered during RETURN command (2440)"

This is a Purchase Order application and other users may be inserting new
rows, or using a two-table form to edit other purchase orders or deleting
rows, or receiving my be updating these rows.

The users have started ignoring the warnings and are able to return to the
form and make the edits without further problems.

The database autochks OK and I have not discovered any consequences to the
users continuing on.

Questions:

1.  What exactly causes this?  Two users on same row, same column?

2.  Is there any real problems here or does RBase resolve the lock problem
on its own?

3.  Should I demand (again) that they follow the message and get all 35
users out of the DB?  (They hate this.)

4.  Is there some way to work around this?
