Do you mean local SQL, i.e. SQL on native tables? Record locking works the
same as with the dBASE DML.

If you're talking about SQL to a server DBMS, it depends upon the DBMS. Some
support active locking via the BDE, some do not. Typically you should use
transaction processing with a server DBMS, and let the DBMS handle the
locking.
