I know there was a discussion on this topic about a year ago, when I inquired about the necessity of using a formal database extension to Rev vs. a text file vs. multiple substacks. I ended up going with the substacks as in doing so multiple users could concurrently access different records, and the data of the individual records (in this case) did not need to be combined in any way. Would it have been possible to allow multiuser access had I used a single text file instead of multiple substacks?

Possible but difficult. Sufficiently difficult that I'd say it wouldn't be worth it.

If you have multiple simultaneous users including one (or some) doing updates, then use a database. (or multiple substacks, but personally I'd just go the whole hog and use a database).
