I simply had to find this quote from FPD2.6 help, re transaction processing:

" When other users on the network try to access records you have modified, they must wait until you end your transaction.  They receive the message "Record not available ... please wait" until the records become available.  ; Because of this, it is important to keep the length of the transaction to a minimum.  It is best to end a transaction before you go to lunch. "

Had to quote myself... had my e-mail quota exceeded, now it's OK again. If anyone's message to me bounced off, sorry - you can resend it now. Message-ID: <34906C63.D4B79631@sezampro.yu> Organization: Alas d.o.o. MIME-Version: 1.0
