[LC Server] using a stack as a small database to store contacts emails - how to deal with concurrent inputs?

[Robert Mann]

Hi! I'll be back into setting up sites after taking a long time off LC into
music instrument designs... 

I'll need to gather some information like contacts emails and thought of
using a server stack that I could then use in many ways and simply upload on
to the desktop to add functions and do some exports and so on. 

Problem is how to ensure that concurrent addition of data will not be
squashed? 

I understood that when sent a msg, a stack will create a process per call.
So if two people happen to send some information at the same time... Did I
get it right? Does the CGI mode work differently than the server mode? (it
would be great if one could force only one process to be open at the same
time!!) 

Is there an easy way to implement a flag system like a dbase? 

I guess that could be of some use to others if the question is cleared!!
Thanks for your inputs! Robert 

otherwise I'll fall back to the dbase method.; but find it less elegant to
be able to write export functions from dbase into a stack.. !!
