A persistent lock can be placed even before the table has been created. For Paradox tables, this feature can be used to reserve a table name for future use. For SQL tables, BDE remembers that the lock was placed, and when the table is actually created during that connection, the table is locked (as long as the server supports table locks). These locks are acquired by the DbiAcqPersistTableLock function.

Releasing acquired persistent table locks

To release an acquired persistent lock, use the DbiRelPersistTableLock function.
