If the changes "stick", then you're not in read-only mode.

Set up a simple test file (say, just "first name" and "last name" fields), 
with no processing, and expand it to 10 records.  If you open two command 
windows, and run dclerk on that file in both windows, you are able to update 
the same record at the same time?
