| Syntax | UnlockApplication |
| Action | [Statement] Unlocks a multi-user application so that it can be accessed by another user. |
| Scope | Usable anywhere. |
| Notes | This statement causes a locked multi-user application to be returned from exclusive (single-user) mode to multi-user mode. A locked application is exclusive to the locking user. A locked application can only be unlocked by the user that locked it, as no-one else is able to access the application while it is locked. A locked application is automatically unlocked if the locking user logs out of it. The system workarea SysError is set to a non-zero value if an error occurs, otherwise zero. |
