Hi all,
1)I am using oracle 8i and I have a procedure which is using the following code:
VCURSOR:=DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR;
DBMS_SQL.PARSE(VCURSOR, p_stmt, DBMS_SQL.V7);
NROWS:=DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE(VCURSOR);
DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR(VCURSOR);
but I get stuck in a loop when somebody is updating a record and not releasing the lock. How can I code around this problem so that after n seconds I can send a message to the user that there's a lock.
2)would it be better to substitute the code with execute immediate?
Thanks a million Marco

Yow Marco,
can't you lock it yourself by using "...for update of..." at the end of the select statement of your cursor ? Then your lock will be released after commiting, wich will happen at the end of your procedure (hopefully)...
Good luck,
Epe
