Double database entries

Hello,

I'm currently developing a HTML form which users can submit some data to a
csv file.
Everything is working like it should. Unfortunately when you look at the
data, there are some items that have been posted double. The entry is exactly
the same as the one posted before it.

Unfortunately I cannot use Microsoft Access to program a Key field number
that goes with every entry, because the form undergoes excessive use and will
have more then 10 connections at the time.

Is there a way to prevent the double entries?

Thanks for your help.
Dirk
 
Not in a csv
- and there is no reason you can't use an access DB on a server other than Win Xp Pro
(where the 10 connection limit has nothing to do w/ Access)
An Access DB can support up to 1000's of "concurrent" users
