Hello all,

Can anyone help me with this?

I want to know if a (paradox) table is in use by another user without
trying to open it. 
This I want to know because opening the table would cost too much
time.
(if the table isn't in use I want to move it to another physical
location before! opening it)

Shouldn't be hard. (can I access the information from Pdoxusrs.lck or
somthing like that, or should i search for an BDE API function?)

Thanks a lot already!
