Hi All,

The app is multiuser. There is a situation that all get an automated instruction to close down after 30 seconds. When closing down, a logtable is opened, a record of the user is updated and finally it is closed. I guess that all machines try this after exactly the 30 seconds (the user can do it earlier). The table is opened with:
USE 'thetable' SHARED AGAIN
No inserts are done, only 'owned' records are updated. Also no one has it opened exclusive.

Nevertheless, some (out of let's say 100) get a File Access Denied error 1705. Is this to be anticipated behavior? What can I do best? Use a do-while?
Groet,

Constructive frustration is the breeding ground of genius.
If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
