Hi Evelyn.

>I am testing in my local computer with only one instance of the form (a VFP 6 form) running and no copy of the file open anywhere else. Inside a transaction I rlock() the record very quickly and unlock it. I intermittently run into a problem where I cannot rlock() the record because it appears to be already locked. How could this be?

When you're in a transaction, VFP manages all the locks it needs on the table, so it's already locked the record for you. Any reason why you're doing the RLOCK() yourself?
