Since this issue comes up all the time, it certainly calls for a language mod.

It seems to me that the straight-forward change would be to add a NOERROR keyword to the USE command. Thus:

select 0
use MyTable exclusive noerror
if upper(alias()) <> "MYTABLE"
wait window "Cannot open exclusive"
endif

You might also want to include a TIMEOUT N option.
