Hi Nancy,

Jeez, so many things to check!! < g >

1) Well, there is a grid on the form, but the table in question is not bound to it.

2) Haven't tried saving instead of canceling (didn't want to put a lotta records on the tables). I'll check it out.

3) I'm using transactions (and I already know I'm doing it wrong at this point, if I get a chance I'll change it) and so I'm doing a ROLLBACK. I didn't think to try that from the command window after the program suspends with the error. I'll check it out.

4) I'm using default datasessions.

Every little suggestion helps Nancy. Thanks!

Bonnie

>>Hi folks! Got another weird one! I'm getting Error #108, "File is in use by another". What the docs tell me is that this error is generated by an attempt to "USE, RENAME or DELETE" a file that is being used by another user on the network. Well, that isn't the case here ... I'm the only one working on this.

>>It's an intermittent error, it seems to be happening on a permanent table, not a cursor, and it's happening when I attempt to INSERT INTO. From the command window I also tried an APPEND and got the same error. But, when I USE'd it to close it and USE'd it again to open it back up, no problem, the error wasn't generated. I'm using Pessimistic Row buffering (so there's no table-locking or file-locking that I'm aware of).
