Putting a pause in Quick

[Joe Boyle]

You don't say which PH version you are using or file system, but in general
you have to avoid screen IO because the lock will be broken if this occurs.

I would ordinarily use a loop like that below 

Let t'val = 0

Lock recname record

While t'val lt 1000000 ( or whatever time lapse you need )
begin

let t'val = t'val + 1

end
.
.
unlock recname 

then run the same screen from other logins to confirm conflicts.

Regards, Joe.

Subject: Putting a pause in Quick

Hi,

I am trying to test the locking of a Quick screen. Does anyone know how I
can put a pause in the screen to lock it for long enough for my qtp process
to find it is locked? I have tried doing multiple FOR loops with the inner
loop actually updating a file, but it still runs too fast. 

Mary.
