- Hello,
-
- I have question on the usage of "USE EXCLUSIVE". If in my currently
- selected work area I have a database already opened in shared mode
- and I want to now change it to exclusive. It seems that I can just do
- a "USE dbname EXCLUSIVE AGAIN" to gain exclusive access. Is this
- correct? If the exclusive lock fails, does the original database
- remain opened in shared mode, or does the db file close because of the
- failure and I have to re-open the database again with a "USE
- dbname" in shared mode.
