I don't believe MySQL has any built-in record locking functionality- that's the bad news. The good news is that even if it did, it would be about the same amount of work in the simple case.
Suppose you were to write a front-end in Revolution, and had no control over the back-end (other than that it was a MySQL server sitting somewhere).
All you would need to do would be to create extra fields in your MySQL database, something like:
RECORD_LOCKS lockedBy: yennieb lockTime: 278236472
Brian,
Thanks for the specific answer. I'm sure it is helpful to a lot of people
out there since this is a topic that usually isn't discussed much.
Thanks again!
