Hi Ian ---

First off, is table buffering still on for the table when you try the RLOCK(). Secondly, what is failing and what is the error message?

Finally, RLOCK() and buffering doesn't always get along well....in VFP 3.0, for example, you had to issue a UNLOCK RECORD 0 after a TABLEREVERT() to unlock the header of a table.
