Dear Ivan



The post is you know, the dataset.post.

I don't use the Wait transaction because in case of "wait" the application
can wait too much if another terminal leaved by error a record in lock. So
in order to handle this cases and avoid to show the application as frozen I
would like to have the full control if a record is available to be updated
or not. Is this wrong approach?



Regards

Dennis

What is "Post" ? Does it actually _exectue_ the statement
each time it is called ?

Btw. why do not you use Wait transaction ? This loop is not nice.
