>Dear all,

>Do you have same problem in your application? I have an application and run on our LAN environment. I just shared the application directory for user. When User A append a record using APPEND BLANK command, User B also want to append a record at the same time. At that time an message showed on the status bar at User B's computer "Attemping to lock the record, press Esc to cancel". But User A has released/finished the record and repeat the process again, User B still wait to lock the record for a long time. I have already set the "REPROCESS" to 5 seconds. The problem still occurred. Anyone has idea to solve that problem? Thanks a lot!!

Justy, check the following :
An Unlock was done at user A after Rlock() ?
User A didn't use Flock() ?
Is MultiLocks Off ?
Does the (Novell) server provide for sufficient lock space (per user and global) ? (Set Maximum Record Locks = )
if applicable, did user A perform TableUpdate ?
The above per topic necessarily won't solve the problem, but looking at the combination of things may.
Anyway, HTH,
