No matter what you do, you will always get deadlock error when two
users/sessions try update the same record at same time. You, or the
component you are using, could take care about this, rereading the record
and applying changes again. To make a test to force this, write two scripts
that change the same record thousands of times (35401 in my test) and put to
execute at isql at same time. You will see it.

Dufloth.
