Description
When you perform a "DeleteAll" when there is nothing to delete, it will still perform a lock. When you for example perform a DeleteAll on an empty table, it will result in a table lock. Therefore it's good practice to always check if the table is empty when performing a DeleteAll.
Bad code
EmptyTableWLD.Setrange(Code, 'AJ');

Good code
EmptyTableWLD.Setrange(Code, 'AJ');
