Hmm you write "file is locked" .... exist works on *documents* that are
stored in the internal dbx files.

Exist handles all dbx-file access internally, including locking. It is not
possible though to share the dbx files across a number of exist instances
(e.g. more than server)

All things are handled for you, no need to worry.... unless you do not
describe the whole use case :-)
