Sorry, Sorry,

Never tested this.
But is that also true if the crash is on the workstation and the table is on a server.
I just tried this but it don't work as i expected.
If i have a file on the server
i lock a record at the users machine.
I then open a second instance of vfp and do the same.
This won't let me locking again

I have also done this on another file (with rlock())
When i switched the computer off and on again the lock was still there.
