DataPage Editor?

Well I'm having problems with my editor today.
It well not turn on, DP/ RT starts up but I get error # -24
"attemp to access unlocked record or set"
I did delete " Vista.taf,Lockmgr.dbl didn't help
So what next any have a thought on this.

Thank you Patrick
  • Is someone else using it? Are you logged on under 2 different names? Are the readlock / writelock setting correct? Is the Xstats11.tmp file size >0 bytes? if it is...delete it. File/Directory names 8 characters or less? These are common issues that come to mind..let me kow if it helps.

    No, This is the only seat However it is backed up in IT.
    We did have a system problem yestreday.
    I don't log in, not sure about read/write thing were would I look
    Sorry newer userer.
    I have been using DP the last few day with no other problems
    so directory name and things are ok.

    Well, did your IT change ANY of youe USER settings? Even without a log-in, there ARE settings that you may be be aware of.
  • the readlock/writelock settings are set-up in the insert "stats" command block..I think you can edit them straight from the program though....the time settings can't be equal if I remember correctly...

    ASK your IT people, if there was a problem yesterday, and they did anything to fix it, ASK them what they changed. You MAY have been an ADMIN on that PC (even without a login) and they may have changed you to a USER.

    That has not changed all old programs, however new to DP.
    Trying to set it up.
    Will not let me into the editor
  • delete the vista.taf, lockmngr.dbl and xstats file like you did before...exit dataPage and shutdown cold...reboot and see if the deleted files are back...sometimes they are stored as .bak files in the Temp directory...shutdown should clear it all out for you...other than that..I don't know...I'd have to go d*ck around with one of my machines to duplicate your error...I'll get back with something (hopefully new) soon...

    He delete the vista.taf and the lockmngr.dbl.
    I couldn't do it here, I was getting a message telling me
    that the data base was being use even though I close out of it
    and there was no one eles using it.
    But hey I'm happy it works!
