Import & Record Locking

Ballycroy
in Importing & Exporting

Featured Replies

I have a multi-user database that displays data from a DOS system.

Data is imported every 30 minutes via a script on a dedicated computer.

Every time records are created or changed in the DOS system they are added to the data file for import.

The users can edit the records.

If a user happens to be editing a record and an import takes place at the same time with an update to that record, then the import for that record is skipped.

I know that this due to record locking, but is there any way to prevent this?
