Hi Friends,
Iam updating a table temp_live_script through VB each 10 minutes.It's working fine.

I have another oracle form in which i will be querying the table temp_live_script.

Since the table table is getting updating every ten minutes the user using the oracle form to query that table will not know when the table is getting updated. Sometimes he will run when the table is updated partially. How to overcome this problem .
Is it possible to find out whether the table is in the process of updating records or not so that we can give an alert message to the user to run after one minute.

please help me out to solve this problem

I'd just make the update one transaction then the user will never see it in a partially updated state.

Iam updating the table each 10 minutes in a VB Form using sqlplus Loader.There i will be updating row by row only. So there i can't update the table in one transaction. In general i will be updating 8000 records each 10 minutes. Pls help me out with a solution to the above stated problem

Are you using sqlplus or sqlloader?
Are you inserting records or updating records?

I'm pretty sure you can configure sqlloader to just commit once.

Not explicitly, but - it is possible to set the ROWS parameter to a value which is higher from the largest number of rows that are going to be loaded into a table. In this example, as number of records is approx. 8000, perhaps setting ROWS=10000 might do the job.
