It's probably easier to wrap the same idea inside some simple direct SQL statements.

If you are willing to be DB specific, an After Insert trigger might be the best way to handle this. Just make sure the order number attribute is not used for locking.

Ha... this looks like I can save some fun\b\b\b time!

The server is FrontBase and the possibility the client would ever switch is completely negligible (at least one advantage here ;))

Low-level SQL is not exactly my cup of tea (to be frank I haven't even know what triggers are!). Am reading on them in the docs the very now and it looks pretty promising.

Sometimes the app is not the right level for solving the problem. I do try to avoid things like this, but sometimes they are the best solution.
