Thanks for your reply, Eric.  Upon falling asleep last night I realized 
I used the wrong word; I did not really mean literally "substacks".  
Perhaps I'd better explain the idea:

Two users on separate (Windows XP Pro) computers each running an 
"anchor" standalone.  One of the users also has >1000 separate one-card 
data stacks located on their computer.  Both users, through the 
anchors, open and close the data stacks as needed. They must open 
different data stacks, of course, and I'd use a file marker as 
recommended in the Rev Documentation to indicate that a given data 
stack was in use. In this way, both users can work with [different 
records of] the data at the same time.

I need to know whether this is possible, since I'd be in effect running 
[data] stacks over a Windows Workgroup PTP network.
File-size of data and speed is of secondary importance here. I already 
have the data records set up as separate cards in a single stack; it 
would not be difficult to divide it into separate data stacks.

I cannot configure one of the computers to run a Windows Server OS 
instead of XP, so I am assuming that as a result I cannot work with 
MySQL.  Or am I mistaken?

Thanks, Kurt
