Hi Potter,

Funny, I ran into this same error recently under similar circumstances. You mention looking at open calls. This implies viewing more that one record at a time, yet you mention buffermode 3. Try changing the buffermode to 5 (Optimistic table buffering). And put SET MULTILOCKS ON in the BeforeOpenTables event of the DE (if a Private datasession).

>All tables of form are opened in the data environment and are buffer mode 3. The most common time for the error to appear is when clicking on a button on the main form where calls are added/edited to see open calls. The button code selects the ir table and then sets the order to open. The error 109 comes on the line select ir.
