Dos file and record locking

[Fred]

Hi, have a dos medical billing program that requires file
and record locking. Can't get it to lock in Win 2k.
Software company says that I need IPS/SPX and a switch
that uses netbios over IPX/SPX any ideas how I can do this
with win 2k. Workstations are win 98 2nd ed. and a peer
server is win 2k.

Thanks,
Fred

You can try to start the program in MS-Dos compatibility mode and see if
that gives you the required result.

Also have look at the KB below, not too sure if it applies to your situation
