| Discussion:

The UNLOCK statement removes the restriction of a previous
LOCK
on a file. It is issued on a
lun which has been previously
opened by the user. If a file is successfully locked, any other
user will get an exception 7 on an attempted open, until the file
is unlocked by the locking user.

| Example:
|
OPEN (1) "FILEB"
LOCK (1)
.

.
UNLOCK (1)
CLOSE (1)
This example shows several related file statements. First, a data
file is opened and locked. Later in the program, the file is
unlocked and closed.
