Hi,

I am sure this is an easy question, but I just don't seem to be able to
produce an answer to it:
How do you make sure hat a row, that is loaded for editing into a client
application cannot be altered by another client before it is written back to
the database?
Do you have to use your own system of extra fields in the database or does
SQL provide means for locking rows?

Thanks for your help

Sebastian
