────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
     The possible values of integer are:
 
      0  Programs can read locked records, but not access them in
         other ways. This is the Micro Focus standard method.
 
      1  Programs cannot access locked records at all. This is as
         in languages other than COBOL.
 
     This directive is reserved for use with add-on products supplied
     by Micro Focus. Do not change its setting unless you have an
     appropriate add-on product.
 
     This directive only has an effect if the CALLFH directive is used.
