Just put <CFLOCK TIMEOUT=30 (or however many seconds you want)> </CFLOCK> around your
call to the CFX_Excel tag.
Check the documentation in the CFML Language Reference for CFLOCK.

What kind of lock should we use. Could you show us a snippet of what you
did?

You have to have Microsoft Excel on the server. The tag actually uses MS
Excel. Make sure you do a LOCK on the call to the tag
because Excel does not handle mulit-threading very well.
