Re: record locks

Dave,

Your gut is behaving better than mine these days :-)

Just did a small test program: READE, followed by WRITE to a new record.
Record remains locked until next READE.

Also, if a WRITE is done, being a new record I suppose that the
lock should be released. Nevertheless, this is more a gut feeling than

hard

data, as most of the times I used READ/WRITE it was done using two

versions

of the same file.

Hi Luis, my gut feeling was why should the WRITE provoke the release of

the

record that has been retrieved? Normally if you've UPDATED, you've

finished

but... maybe that's something else I'm feeling in my gut.
