If you are using views, then you are also using optimistic buffering. Therefore, there are no locks placed on the base table's records until a Tableupdate() is issued. The views that are created are actually temp files created in each user's getenv('temp') directory. These views are actually opened exclusively. However, this is not an issue and has absolutely no effect on the base table[s] that the view is derived from.
