I want the file zzuser2 to be released after the write. When I check the file it shows the file is still locked even after the 'unlock' as processed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The file is locked, or the record?

UNLOCK unlocks a record or a data area.

But to unlock the file (and the member), you would have to close it.
