<DIV>To my surprise last week I noticed that I can get into update mode on the
same record from two different sessions at the same time.</DIV>
<DIV>This only happens in my Windows 7 Pro 64 bit system running filePro
5.0.11.</DIV>
<DIV>I start up two different filePro sessions on my Windows monitor, and they
can update the same record at the same time.</DIV>
<DIV>I make a change in one and save it, then save the other and it wipes out
the change made by the first.</DIV>
<DIV>On my SCO Unix 5 system, trying to do this results in a message that says
the record is being updated, access denied.</DIV>
<DIV>It should work that way in Windows too.</DIV>
<DIV>I also found that if I am in update mode on a record and run an output
process from another session, that process will update the record I am on even
while I am in update mode. On my Unix system, the output process will wait
for the record to be unlocked.</DIV>
<DIV>So it appears that record locking does not work on my Windows system, and I
am wondering if anybody else has this problem or if anyone has an idea of how or
why it could happen?</DIV>
