Yes, I know I cross-posted.  I have asbestos under-wear and am ready for all
your flames, but I do have a question to ask and would be much more
appreciative if you would answer that instead of flame me for a mild manners
infraction.

We have several public folders of custom task-related forms that are
actively used and I, as one of the administrators of the folders, see a lot
of conflict notices.  Is there any way to see when a form is opened for an
existing item if someone is already working on it??  Some crude form of
'database record locked' that I can implement??

TIA!

Only if you have code in the form. You can set a UserProperty on the item
when the form opens and clear it when the form closes. If another form opens
on that same item the code would check the UserProperty, see it's set to
True and either close after a message to the user or do something else that
prevents the conflict.
