I am still waiting for that sample code using the Monitor command in RPG
to do something like
/free
 monitor;
 read myfile;
   on-error 01218; // record lock
     recordlock();
   on-error *file; // other file errors
     fileerrors();
   on-error *all;  // what's left?
     crash();
 endmon;

Now how to retrieve the offender from within the rpg would be cool.  With
that information I could roll my own technique for dealing with the
situation.

Usually, when you can't get a record because another job has it locked,
the system puts a CPF5027 in your job log that lists who the user is.

What I generally do is retrieve that message, and display that userid on
the screen, while trying to lock the record in a loop.   This way, the
user sitting at the screen can call up Dan and complain that he's locking
the record.  (It's always Dan!)
