Borislav,
Yes, users do attampt to write to the file simultaniously as it is in any multi-users environment.
The suggestion you have definitely seems to be a solution to my problem.
I am gonna try that out.
The other thing is that, in my VFP options, I had the buffering set to off.
I wonder if that has any bearing on the saving.
Does VFP have issues in saving records in multi-user environment when the number of users reach to certain count or when the file size reaches certain number or record number reaches certain number? I know the VFP capacities but just wondering.
Which one is more of a common solution Client/Server or application accessing a centralized database from various workstations, when it comes to multi-user environment in VFP?
Thanks again for the reply,
Dawa
Sorry I was not read the help carefuly,
Is it possible some users to try to write records simultaniously?
May be the cikle will prevent lose data.
m.gnError = 0 on error m.gnError = error()BEGIN TRANSACTION....DO WHILE .NOT. FLOCK() && You decide how many cikles to waitENDDOINSERT .....TableUpdate(.t., "Stafile") && Just in case :o)if m.gnError = 0 end transaction else rollback endif
