Hi, Not trying to hijack or anything, but on the record locking looping commentary, if I might ask. How best to lock a group of records in the script before zapping it with a replace? Thanks, Laura Z.

If any error occurs you didn't open the record. So check for Get(LastError) = 0. If it is 0, your safe. If it is not 0, your not. For example, Record Level Access would also stop a script from opening the record and it does not return 301. It returns 200. Todd
