Sloppy wording on my part; I should have said "locking levels", since what I
was driving at was that SE does not have ROW/PAGE locking options - it always
uses ROW (as there is no such thing as a PAGE in SE). Alan is correct that
SET LOCK MODE TO [NOT] WAIT *IS* available on most SE ports.
Standing corrected,
