SYMPTOMSUnder Windows NT 3.5, Microsoft FoxPro can obtain an exclusive open of a DBF file when it should be denied access. CAUSEWhen a FoxPro database file is stored on a Netware Server, and accessed from a Windows NT Workstation or Server, it is possible to obtain an exclusive open of the file when it is not appropriate. The attributes of the DBF file must be set to R, W and S (read, write, and share) for this to occur. Deleting the DBF file S attribute prevents the problem. STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. A
fix to this problem is in development, but has not been regression-tested
and may be destabilizing in production environments. Microsoft does not
recommend implementing this fix at this time. Contact Microsoft Product
Support Services for more information on the availability of this fix. Additional query words: prodnt Fox Pro
