Use transactions and better the DB design (which is easier said than done!).
Have you tied it down to one particular SQL Block? Maybe a report or an SP running a cursor? N -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Duckworth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 October 2004 17:02 To: CF-Talk Subject: SQL Deadlock Does anyone have any ideas on how to prevent/handle database deadlock? Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Transaction (Process ID 132) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. We get a message similar to the one above about once a week. My guess is that the deadlock occurred b/c the same row was attempting to be read and written to at the same time.
