LOCKS???

Hi gang: I’ve read a bunch about MYSQL LOCKs, but I can seem to get them to work. For example, I have two computers accessing the same host (i.e., thus each with different SIDs) and accessing two different scripts. One script performs a "LOCK TABLES t WRITE" and the second script tries to read TABLE t. While the LOCK is in place, the second script has no problem reading and writing to TABLE t. I don’t understand what's wrong — any ideas? Thanks, tedd _______________ tedd sperling tedd.sperling@gmail.com
