I wonder if you did an OVRDBF <file> WAITRCD(*IMMED)? And then change it
back afterwards.

Greetings,

I have a routine to check to see if a record is locked in a file. It
works but takes about 30 seconds before it returns with the results that
the record is locked. Is there anything that I can do, either in the RPG
or CL program that calls the RPG to get a faster determination that the
record is locked? Thanks.
