Database Utilities

Toggle Unique Locks
Modifies the way in which multi-user locking is handled for that slot in the data file.

Lock Types

  • Unique Locks - makes locks unique
  • MultiRow - makes locks non-unique

The default, non-unique locking, is faster but has the disadvantage that each time you lock a record, you lock approximately one in every 500 records in the same slot. This is the most reliable locking mode, If you find it essential to use row locking, where the locks apply to only one record at a time, you can toggle this mode on a slot by slot basis.
