Hi
I'm doing some work on an old legacy system written in 9.1C and I need to update a dynamic buffer that is in a no-lock state - so basically I need to upgrade it to exclusive-lock.
In 9.1D Progress introduced the FIND-CURRENT method which makes this easy [e.g. hMyBuffer:FIND-CURRENT(EXCLUSIVE-LOCK)] but this is not an option in 9.1C. The table used by the buffer is dynamically obtained so, say, FIND CURRENT TABLEX EXCLUSIVE-LOCK isn't an option.
