Re: Locking records on Cobol

Would it be wise to use the "NO LOCK" if I'm changing the record?

Hi everyone, I'm having a rough time with a program.  The program is used
for a lot a people and every time someone tries to change data, the program
freezes anyone who tries to access another record.

Can anybody tell me what steps I should take to correct this problem.

Thanks very much for all the help

Luis
