Re: [U2] Record Locking Problems
Hi Karen, For reference although the RECORDLOCKU statement does not support an array in it's syntax it does read the record on UniVerse, it does not on UniData. Your assumption is correct that it shouldn't read the record, as it only needs to access the lock table which is a memory structure, if you want to test this for yourself do a test on UniData and UniVerse on RECORDLOCKU v READU and you'll see there is almost no time difference on UniVerse.

Re: [U2] Record Locking Problems
I assume that the SUB.LOCKED.SOH.RO is called to do the lock and then returns. The problem is that you open the file in this routine to do the locking against. Once this subroutine ends that file handle will go out of scope (it was defined local to this subroutine) and the file is closed. That releases the lock. The best way would be to pass in an open file handle. If that is not possible for some reason then open the file to a variable defined in named common and test to see if it is already open using FILEINFO() before attempting to do the open. such as: COMMON /MY.FILE.HANDLES/ F.THIS.FILE IF FILEINFO(F.THIS.FILE,0) = 0 THEN OPEN . END I would prefer passing in the open file handle myself if possible. Named common is very useful, but care needs to be taken in it's use. For example the common memory defined is associated to the process and not the account. Therefore if you logto another account without first exiting U2 the file handle would still be open, BUT pointed at the file in the account where it was opened. You would need to have logic in the logins to test for this or add additional checks (using FILEINFO again for the path where the file is located) Rich Taylor | Senior Programmer/Analyst| VERTIS 250 W.

Re: [U2] Record Locking Problems
From the universe documentation Description Use RECORDLOCK statements to acquire a record lock on a record without reading the record. Description Use the RECORDLOCKED function to return the status of a record lock. I too may be missing something but why get a lock on a record without reading the record and why check if a record is locked before trying to read/lock it when READU does all that for you? it seems to me that the code could be simplified by using a READU which tests if the record is locked and locks it for you if its not.

RE: [U2] Record Locking Problems
By using READU, you can also do fun things when your code takes the locked clause, such as offering an inquiry-only mode (i.e. updates are disabled), which is terribly user-friendly. And/or you can display who's locking the record so the lockee can contact the locker, also terribly user-friendly.

RE: [U2] Record Locking Problems
Bill, The RECORDLOCKED returns a number of values, the value of 1 states that this user has a record lock, not another user. Try using an else on the case structure.

RE: [U2] Record Locking Problems
Your code doesn't test for the type of lock. It could be just a shared record lock which would allow another user to get in.

RE: [U2] Record Locking Problems
Bill I think your problem is related to re-opening the file in the subroutine. Everytime you open a file you clear all the previous locks. Ie the user opens file, locks record and then opens file again there is no record locks. Use a fileinfo statement to check file is open and if it is skip opening it.
