Well, IMHO, that's the first thing I would change. In my experience, it's a
LOT of work to put in explicit transaction control, but it pays off BIG
TIME, for precisely these sorts of reasons. And the same comment is true of
any client - server database.

I wouldn't trust the BDE to don anything at all ...
