RE: need ALCOBJ type lock released when program ends

Steve,

I have worked with APLUS for several years, so I think I can appreciate your
situation. State of the art features of IBM I will probably not work.
Contact me offline if you want my two cents.

Have you thought of using a dummy data area. Read the data area with a
lock. If someone else has the data area it waits or times if long wait.

Finish working on order. Release the lock.

just did not want to get too involved in it. There is a bigger problem in
that the APLUS offline order entry will itself halt with a file in use error
and wait for a reply from QSYSOPR.
