This is IDS 9.4 . There are many programs around here (c++/ado/Windows) where programmers did not set the lock mode anyplace in their programs. Changing DEADLOCK_TIMEOUT won't help. What I would like is to cause the default behavior to wait N seconds. I cannot find any ONCONFIG parameter or environment variable that seems to do that. Is there such a thing? sending to informix-list

No. Nothing for it but to fix those apps. That's why there are code reviews! Art S. Kagel
