VB4.0 and Btrieve 6.15

I have a problem accesing Btrieve 6.15 with Visual Basic 4.0. When I
open the Btrieve database and a table of this DB, it appears in the
Novell monitor like "locked exclusive", but Im openning the file in a
sharing mode.

Here is the sintaxis of my code:

Dim Db as database
Dim Tb as recordset

Set Db=("n:\scala\file.ddf",false,false,"btrieve;")
Set Tb = Db.OpenRecordset("SL Customer" , dbOpenTable)
tb.lockedits= false

I think this way is a sharing mode, maybe theres any patch for this
combination of products

Thanks for your attention, Ill be waiting for any response.

Hi ,Alejandro. I recent program with Engine Btreive but I buy a custom
Control for Visual Basic that access direct to DDF Table.
This Control are there most power, and you can save most of your program.
Otherwise I can look another mode to access to DDF,Yout E-mail have some bug,you
can put yuor Visual Basic code?

I don´t have trouble accesing DDF files, my problem is that when i open Btrieve with Visual Basic, I can see the Btrieve file in Novell's Monitor and not in BTRMON, and they appear like "locked exclusive".
