Turba doesn't hold any locks on the database...it strictly reads the  
data then displays the data to the user in the browser - regardless of  
if it's a view or edit screen.  Sooooo, what it comes down to is that  
if two users have PERMS_WRITE on a single address book, then the more  
recent user changes will be reflected in the databse.

If by some chance two users are commiting changes to the address book  
at 'exactly' the same time (ignoring the whole einstein relativity  
thing ;) ) then I imagine it depends on how the database you are using  
handles 'collisions' of this sort.



Thanks,
mike
