Some other things I should tell everyone regarding what I am doing here --


No HWMPUT (disabled)

Program calls DBCONTROL mode 5 to set CIUPDATE=on for current process.
Program calls DBCONTROL mode 7 to set DEADLOCKDETECT flag=on 
for current process.

PM program (calls a sub that FOPEN's the root file, reads the user labels 
to get the db passwords passed back to the calling program, calls
GETUSERMODE before returning to mainline)

database DBOPENed three (3) times with the same Image db (write) password.

DBXBEGIN/DBLOCK (mode5 item locks)/DBFIND/DBGET/DBPUT done with access path
three (3). Upon failure of DBPUT I call DBXUNDO, close the DB's and all
open files and then call intrinsic QUITPROG.

Normally, I can solve these problems in a minimal amount of time but this
one has me beat. I've been trying to get beyond this problem for days on end now
with no solution. I cannot figure out if it truly is an Image expansion problem,
DBX problem compounding the issue(s) or if it is a behind the scenes system
problem regarding my available disc space.


Brian.
