Last Century:

C MyKey chain MyFile 99
c if *in99 and %status=1218
c** Record is locked
c endif


Around the start of this century:

/free
chain(e) MyKey MyFile;
if %error and %status=1218;
// record locked
endif;


-or simply-

chain(e) MyKey MyFile;
if %status=1218;
// record locked
endif;


Most recent technique:

monitor;
chain MyKey MyFile;
on-error 1218;
// record locked
endmon;
