Not really helping you with the problem Ajoy, but just a general
observation.
That is, "one point of entry and one point of exit"....(I hate RETURNs
half way up through the code).
You would be better of doing :-
llFailed = .F. && Should be "ll" - as var is logical!
Try
Open Database mydata Exclusive
Set Database To mydata
Pack Database
Catch
llFailed = .T.
Messagebox("Other users logged in")
Endtry
Return Not llFailed

Subject: TRY CATCH
In the INIT of a form I need to check if the dbc can be opened
exclusively.
If Yes proceed else a message to try later as other users are logged in.
I am not sure of this TRY CATCH snippet.
Try
Open Database mydata Exclusive
Set Database To mydata
Catch
lcFlag = .T.
=Messagebox("Other users are currently logged
in.",64,c_messagetitle)
Endtry
If lcFlag = .T.
Return .F.
Else
Pack Database
Endif
Can anyone just help me. Something similar in Vfp6 was not a problem. A
direct rebuild with Vfp8/9 did not work well. I wonder why.
