    access 97: multi user and do lookup functions

    hi-
    i currently have a multi-user database called CP for users to execute
    a
    function for a specified account. there are 18 accounts with a 1000
    loans each.
    the code is executed when the user checks the [CreatedMoved] check box
    (=-1)
    for a specific loan and then clicks the Start button.

    what i would like to do is to block other users from interferring with
    the current list of loans within the the specificed account#1 by not
    allowing other users to check the [CreatedMoved] check box when
    account#1 is running the function. would i need to do a lookup
    function on the main table to see whether or not the [CreatedMoved]
    field equals = -1 for the specified loan?

    just to let you know the set up of the database: the cp database is
    set up with linked tables on the server (CP back end database) and
    front end database on the users' c drive.

    i hope i made some sense. any advise would be appreciated.
    thanks in advance,
    jung
