Thanks Colin & David. That's what I did; what a dance though!
I wonder why anyone would want STATUS() to return a value that doesn't
give us the means to resolve the problem (as in what terminal, or what
UO program was locking the record)? PORT.STATUS is of no value in a web
environment because it's too slow and doesn't return a call stack on a
UO process.
It's be really nice if we could get any information about a port/process
simply by querying some object, instead of having to remember some
esoteric function whose data we need to parse through. Kind of like UD
not telling us which darned dbms account a user is logged into!
Thanks again.
Bill

That's what we used to use. It's a little more of a pain as you have to
parse through the output to find the correct record - but it should give you
need. It's simply list.readu output in an array.

Can you get what you need using GETREADU?

Subject: [U2] [UD] Who's locking a record
In UniData, if you do a READU you can find out the User ID who has the
record locked by using the STATUS() function; this returns the 'UID'
value. Here's a list of users:
3 Dev (0)-> lu
Licensed(UDT+CP)/Effective Udt Sql iPhtm Pooled Total
( 24 + 1 ) / 25 1 0 0 0 1
UDTNO USRNBR UID USRNAME USRTYPE TTY IP-ADDRESS TIME DATE
1 2488 197612 AsiAdmin phantom pts/1 Console 10:42:32 Jan 15 2014
2 3920 197610 JohnSmith udt pts/2 192.168.1.52 08:15:33 Jan 28 2014
3 180 197608 udcsuser udcs pts/3 udcs 09:22:57 Jan 28 2014
4 3840 197608 udcsuser udcs pts/4 udcs 09:23:08 Jan 28 2014
Now, if John Smith goes to read and lock a record that is locked by port#3,
how can I figure out which port# actually has the record locked, since the
UniData GETUSER() function only returns the UID, and that user, because it
is a UniObjects user, is connected on more than one port#?
I have a file managed at login that keeps track of the PORT#s and the
associated users assigned by our application. I want our logging to report
that a record lock by user so-and-so on port {n} is already in place.
Thanks.
Bill
