SAS Notes V6-AF-E352
Unable to obtain lock with _REREAD_ method on previously locked row


Within a Data Form object in a SAS/AF FRAME entry, if you scroll to a row that is locked (such as by another person when using SAS/SHARE), youmay receive a message that the row is locked. If the first person scrolls off the row so they no longer have this row locked and you execute the _REREAD_ method to read the row again, you may still be unable to obtain a lock on the row.

To circumvent the problem, scroll off and back onto the row and then youshould be able to obtain a lock on the row.
