Isn't the possibility far greater than slight? Tim said this is a heavily used file. The idea of reading a record, testing it, and if chosen, rereading the record and updating it is a really quick way to read a file. The chances are very good that it will arrive at almost every single record that is already out on other workstations and read it. This could lead to a lot of conflicts I think. ---------------------------------------------------- Booth Martin Contract Programming, Inc. --------------------------------------------------- +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to "MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com". | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MAJORDOMO@midrange.com | and specify 'unsubscribe MIDRANGE-L' in the body of your message. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
