Topic:
GeoFrame IESX : Data area 'project_name' in use, allocated by 'user_name'.

Description:
Error occurs when attempting to open an IESX application from the Session
manager.
 
Data area 'project_name' in use, allocated by 'user_name'. 
Data area not available.

Solution:
Message indicates that the current 'project' data area is allocated and which
'user' it is allocated by.

The most common reasons that 'Project' data area could be locked are :

1.) Another user is accessing the same project.
2.) The last time a user was accessing the project it was not closed out 
    cleanly.

In this case the 'project' data area needs to be cleared.

If the project is allocated by the current user :
1.) Dismiss the message and close the Session Manager.
2.) Deallocate the project using :
    Geonet > GeoFrame > Clear IESX Project.  

If the project is allocated by a different user :

1.)Check that the user is not currently accessing the IESX project.
   If another user is currently accessing the IESX project and the project is
   'cleared' and accessed by a second user, irrepairable damage will be caused
   to the project.
2.)Dismiss the message and close the Session Manager.

Either request that the user who has the project allocated, deallocates the
data area for you, as above, hence making sure that the project is not currently 
being used or, after having checked that project is definatly not currently
being accessed it can be 'force' cleared in an IESX Xterm.  Use this option 
with care.

1.)Start a GeoFrame Xterm from Geonet
2.)At the prompt, type > da_clear -f 'project_name'
