Don't start out that way!
Let me know what program you sell using this advice so I don't make
the mistake of buying it. Anyone who can't make proper use of LOCK and
UNLOCK should not write windows applications. Why sould I buy something
written like a DOS program that eats up memory so no other application
can run!
