I've been looking up information on cflock and cftransaction lately, I'm sad
to say that I haven't had any experience using them in the past. Am I
correct in saying that as a best practice cflock should always be used when
you're accessing or modifying variables in Session, Application, or Server
scopes? And you use the ReadOnly type when you're only going to access the
variable, and exclusive when there's any chance it'll be modified?

I'm a little more confused about cftransaction. I understand that you can
either commit or rollback queries with it, but is this also how you lock
databases? If I don't want two people inserting new records into the
database at once, would I just do a normal cftransaction with a commit at
the end? Thanks in advance for any help.
