[Gambas-user] File lock

[Budi Arief Gusandi]

1. Just put a variabel key in the DataFile such as "Used = 0/1" to show 
that the data file is being used or not. So if the first program run, set 
the variable to 1, so other program that will use the file will check the 
value  to allow the program to use the file or waiting. When termintaing 
the program, dont forget free it by setting the value to 0 or you'll get 
locked forever.
2. Use the methode like gambas IDE GUI with .Lock File
