It is the 'You can't log in right now...' portion that is the problem. The user needs to log in 100% of the time. So I can put it in a loop, but what I want to make sure of is that they get logged in. How about:

DO WHILE NOT rlock('0','mytable')
insert into mytable values (value1, value2)
unlock record 0 in mytable
EXIT
ENDDO
