How about using the FILEINFO function? This will return the path name of the 2 different files.
OPEN "CUSTOMER" TO F1 ELSE STOP OPEN "CUSTOMER2" TO F2 ELSE STOP PATH1 = FILEINFO(F1,2) PATH2 = FILEINFO(F2,2) Rgds Bernard Lubin Development Department Reynolds and Reynolds -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Woodward Sent: Friday, 16 March 2007 3:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [U2] Help with File Pointers But doesn't the locking let the same session set the same lock many times?

If it will not let you do it, then you have the same file. ( note that my first thought was to write an item, but that could cause problems if anyone else was using the file. ) give the lock a unique name like testingFilePointerTestProgram so you don't have issues with existing data. ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
