filePro lockfiles

There has been some discussion again on the list about how 5.6 lockfiles are 
"incompatible" with 5.0.  While it is true that you cannot run 5.6 and 
pre-5.6 filePro executables on a given filePro file at the same time 
(filePro 5.6 will tell you that an older version is using the file, and 
pre-5.6 gives some other lockfile error which I don't recall at the moment), 
it was designed to seamlessly let you go back and forth between 5.6 and 
pre-5.6 versions of filePro.

If someone has a repeatable scenario where you get a lockfile error when 
going between versions, contact fpsupport with the details.
