EnumLocks Method
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
The EnumLocks method returns a QueryResults object that enumerates the resource locks held by an instance of Microsoft SQL Server.
