Bug Description

Hi. I'm using the latest HomeBank version. The xhb file is located on a webdav share, and our family is editing the same file (with different accounts for the family members inside the application). We need a very simple locking mechanism, which creates a locfile when someone opens the file (and deletes it upon closure), and it does not allow to open the file for edition until that lockfile exists.

It frequetly happens that when we open the same file from different places (home, work, etc) we overwrite each-other's progress.

Thank you.
