VFP9SP2 app/Win10 Pro workstation/Win2012 Server
Got a bug report from a client today that threw a 108 "File is in use by another user" on an INSERT INTO statement (all VFP9 dbc tables). Found it interesting that the VFP Help file says that's on a USE, DELETE, or RENAME command (but not INSERT INTO).
INSERT INTO has to be doing an implicit USE, don't you think?

I didn't test it and didn't use it in many years, but could be possible that the table had a file lock (not record lock) by this another user?
Don't know if the message is the same or something more like "table header is locked by another user"

I can't tell if the table was open, and if not, your logic is reasonable, but if it WAS already open, ????

I have been using insert into <mytable> from memvar for years with our accounts package Pegasus Opera and all worked fine until we upgraded to Opera 3. We occasionally get the same error trying to insert a stock transaction say. All tables are open by lots of people but we think it is Opera locking the table doing some sort of update that is stopping the command working.

I don't know why this happens, but I can say our customers will sometimes get it. We open our tables Shared with Table Buffering in the Dataesssion of the form. We have had standalone installs have this error. (local machine, data is not shared) I suspect it has something to do with an anti-virus or on demand backup software that causes the behavior. After we exclude the DBF, CDX and FPT files, and remove the backup software that doesn't really stop temporarily locking the files, we don't hear from them with that particular issue again.
Good luck finding the culprit.

It's a SET function. You should be able to find that in the help.

What's your setting of TABLEVALIDATE? I have seen reports of this error on APPEND BLANK when SET TABLEVALIDATE is not 0.
Frank.

Hi Frank,
Nope. Still a mystery. Rarely happens so not on the "urgent" list.
