Title: dDBASE 5.0 for DOS - file lock info
Post by: redeye on December 11, 2007, 02:33:45 PM

Hi All,

I am using dDBASE 5.0 for DOS.

I have a file locked and I am trying to get the information on who locked it. So far, I have tried using LKSYS() (already CONVERTed the tables) and it only works if I issue the command with the same user that has the file locked. Given that information, I could check a database for lock information, then lock the file and have the user report their information DBF(), ID(), TIME() and DATE() to a database file to be read by other users.

Is there a better way to get the lock information?

Thanks
