SET REPROCESS TO XX [seconds]

The default is 0 and VFP will display that message. If you limit the number of retyrs then VFP will simply not lock the record. Note that this command is scoped to individual datasessions so if you use private datasession forms, you need to reset it in the Load (or somewhere).

HTH.
