IMAGE/SQL Deadlocks 
[REV BEG] 

A deadlock occurs when two or more transactions are in a simultaneous
wait state and each needs data that is held and locked by the other.

When a deadlock is encountered, the TurboIMAGE/XL intrinsic DBLOCK
returns an error to IMAGE/SQL. IMAGE/SQL then aborts the IMAGE/SQL
transaction that caused the deadlock.  Transaction priorities are not
considered in determining which transaction is aborted--the IMAGE/SQL
transaction that caused the deadlock is aborted.
