Good point.
But how would you handle that technically?
Checksum on what, which fields are relevant for the hash?

IMHO it might be easier to refresh the lock automatically every minute 
and kill all obsolete locks when trying to open a record for editing. No 
cron required!

I could provide code for that.


Regs. Peter.
