I have a program that when a user deletes a record it just marks the record for delete, that way all the data is all still there if we need to get it back. But if a user decides they did not want to delete the record and recreates it before they exit that portion of the app they cant because the record is still locked. I have tried using the unlck command and I have tried closing the file and opening it back up again but nothing seems to work. the lock gets hung up on a chain command. Am I just doing this wrong or what, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Chris
