I'm hoping for the bandaid problem. I'm getting ready to pop open the code now.

It's a DB... I think it's a DB because it's interfacing with web pages that could be open in different locations by multiple people at once.

I'm not a native computer programmer so I wouldn't know what another solution would look like. I just take the code as it was created by others and assume it's the best solution and just try to find the bandaid problems.
