Notify that recordset is already being edited

message from =?Utf-8?B?RGFuaWVsIFA=?= on 6 May 2004
Hello,

I had a database that is used by numerous people on a network server. Is there a way to display a message when someone loads a recordset that another person also has open?

Thank you in advance,

Daniel

yes,
you can (attempt) open it with the dbDenyWrite option.
that should give you an trappable error

Dim Rs as DAO.Recordset
Set Rs = Access.CurrentDB.OpenRecordset("SELECT .. FROM ..
",DbOpenDynaset,DbSeeChanges + dbDenyWrite)
...

Pieter,

Could you explain a little more. Where do I need to use this function.... I don't want to lock the database by the first user to logon to the database. I only want to lock individual recordset while a user is viewing/editing it.

Thank you for your help,

Daniel
