There are basically 2 ways :
1) Using error
local llInUSe
on error llInUSe = .t.
use Table1 exclusive
on error
if llInUse
2) Try to open lowlevel readwrite
local llInUse
lnHandle = fopen('table1.dbf',12)
llInUse = ( lnHandle < 0 and ferror() = 5 )
if lnHandle > 0
fclose(lnHandle)
use Table1 exclusive
endifCetin
