In my ongoing saga of legacy code in FP2.6 for DOS (ugh), I found someone doing something like:

Scan
Scatter Memvar
Insert Into Booked From Memvar
Endscan

The reason I was given for doing this was that they could not allow the record/table to be locked as would be the case with the append command. This code is incredibly slow. Is there a way around this witout locking tables?
