Need a Opinion

I have got the code already but will look at more. I need to know if I going in the right direction. I have five station that I have loaded my program on. The data base is located on the sever. The problem I’m having is that when more then one person update or edit the database is damages it. So with the help of other I have coded the update or edit part of the program with a Lockedit = True using pessimistic locking. Is this direction I should be going.
This is how I'm using lockedits property. See what it look like to you. An E-mail back at sfowler@mastnet.net
