Description
Locks a Paradox or dBASE table.
Call LockTable to lock a Paradox or dBASE table to prevent other applications from placing a particular type of lock on the table. LockType specifies the lock requested by this application.
Requesting a read lock prevents other applications from reading a table. Requesting a write lock prevents other application from writing to a table.
An application can request both types of lock by calling LockTable twice, once for each lock type.
