ADO LockType Property
Complete Recordset Object Reference
The LockType property sets or returns a LockTypeEnum value that specifies the type of locking
when editing a record in a Recordset. Default is adLockReadOnly. This property
is read/write on a closed Recordset and read-only on an open Recordset.
Note: Set this property before opening the Recordset.
Note: Not all providers support all lock types. If the requested LockType
setting is not supported, the provider will choose another type of locking. You
can use the Supports method to determine the actual locking functionality available in a Recordset
object.
Note: adLockPessimistic is not supported if CursorLocation is set to
adUseClient.
