Help Required

[Jeff Hoffman]

Margaret 

Use both, the set lock tells what & when to lock, the set file tells the
type of open required.

I personnally recommend

set lock file update
set file xxxx open read share

for HP MPE bods

set file lock update
set file xxxx open dbmode 5

Any file to be updated, I leave as default.
