Was that program doing a READE or READPE when it encountered the record lock situation? If so, you can put an indicator in the "LO" resulting indicator position, and if a record lock is the problem, RPG will turn on that indicator rather than throwing an exception that ends up in your error handling subroutine.

Hmm. Actually, it's a CHAIN statement, but it, too, has "ER" in the "LO" column, the same as READE.

Time to run some tests. And by the time I've finished, it should be lunchtime.

OVRDBF is certainly possible, but I've always found it inelegant.
