Easysoft ODBC-ISAM DriverWill Easysoft Data Access for ISAM connect to my ISAM data at the same time as my 'green screen' application? |

Many users of EDA for ISAM also still use legacy applications to update and read their data. To make sure that EDA for ISAM does not lock these applications out and vice versa Easysoft have implemented into the software the ability to mirror the locking mode of all iterations of C-ISAM. This means that once the locking mode that mirrors your version of C-ISAM is chosen EDA for ISAM and other applications can access the files concurrently. EDA for ISAM will only take an exclusive (and only ever at record level) lock at point of update. At all other times it open the ISAM file read only. This ensures that the data is freely available for all other applications.
