Re: Lock a record for testing


Here is a flyer: If you call up the record with UPDDTA and then choose delete instead of update, but don't confirm the delete, does that by any chance lock the record until you are done?

Second thought: By any chance, is REXX installed?

Albert,

Could you STRSQL COMMIT(*ALL) then SELECT the record to be locked?

Subject: Lock a record for testing

I need to be able to lock a record in a file in order to do some testing.

The system that I am testing on does not have an RPG compiler.

Is there a way to lock a record without writing a program?

Thanks,

Albert
