It doesn't return a true or false value.  It doesn't seem to return any value at
all.
I just do
  SETLVAR FLOCK VEFLOCK(fnum, TRUE)
and ignore the value returned.

It does seem that if you use the non-waiting variant,
   VEFLOCK(fnum, false)
there doesn't seem to be any way of telling if the lock succeeded or not.

Anyone ever use VEFLOCK?  It seems I'm missing something.

IF VEFLOCK(11,TRUE)
A non-boolean expression was found. (CIERR 9940)
ENDIF
