## 13.6.26 SHARE Specifier (WNT, W9*)

The SHARE specifier indicates whether file locking is implemented while the unit is open. It takes the following form:

  SHARE = shr
  shr
  Is a scalar default character expression that evaluates to one of the following values:

  'DENYRW' | Indicates deny-read/write mode. No other process can open the file.
  'DENYWR' | Indicates deny-write mode. No process can open the file with write access.
  'DENYRD' | Indicates deny-read mode. No process can open the file with read access.
  'DENYNONE' | Indicates deny-none mode. Any process can open the file in any mode.

The default is 'DENYWR'. However, if compiler option /fpscomp=general or the SHARED specifier is used, the default is 'DENYNONE'.
