pDbMode

The pDbMode parameter specifies if the database process mode is shared or exclusive.

The database mode constants and their integer values are listed in the following table.

Constant Value Description
DB_SHARED 0 Enables multiple current users to open the database.
DB_EXCLUSIVE 1 Requests exclusive access to the database. If other users already have the database open, a database mode conflict is reported. Similarly, if one user already has the database open in exclusive mode, other users are prevented from opening the database.
