RE: PGM assist?

Tim,

You have gotten enough replies on your original question, but if your 
comment in the source about changing the case of a field is correct, and 
you have SQL consider replacing the entire program with this SQL statement.

update ussrchm set xxx = upper(xxx) where xxx <> upper(xxx)

where xxx is the field name. If you run this statement without commitment 
control you should have no record locking problems.
