Recte! I created me an infinite looop thingie. The DOLOOP = 0 should be INSIDE the Loop structure... obviously Bonk bonk on the head !

So this is for a job interview? DOLOOP = 0 LOOP READU ITSLOCKEDJIM FROM Y,Z LOCKED DOLOOP = 1 END UNTIL NOT(DOLOOP) DO SLEEP 10; *Let the system catch its breath REPEAT WRITE X ON Y,Z ELSE CRT 'HELP ME!

I'm hoping to add the ability for the program I'm working on to: * Check if a record is locked * Wait until the lock is removed * Once the lock is removed, or if the record is not locked: * Lock the record * Perform the WRITE statement I'm hoping someone can share an example of how to accomplish this in UniBasic.
