OCR: Lock Description Exclusive Lock The user has exclusive access to, and control of, the table; no one else can even view if. Required for creating or restructuring a table Write Lock Other users can view the table, but only the locked user can modify it. This ensures that updates take place cleanly. Copying a table requires a Write Lock on the destination, as does any kind of bulk change to the table. Only one Write Lock can exist on a table. Read Lock The locked user may read the table and write to it if no other user also has a Read Lock. Other users can also read the table at all times. Multiple Road Locks can coexist on a table, but each will stop the others from writing. Open Lock The lowest level of locking. A user may open the table and read its contents; other users can do the same. Required for reading the structure of a table Figure 1: Paradox table locks
