Well its not really the same. CFtransaction will prevent race conditions and rollbacks in CF, while CF has a lock and wont send similar requests until the transaction is complete. Another request could come in through cf that is not in a transaction that is executed.
Transactions on the database side will actually lock rows and the specific data being updated. CF doesnt have that level of power, all its basically doing is pausing all other requests, not locking rows. They are almost two completely different functions. -Adam On 6/7/05, Aaron Rouse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Because this is a big oilfield company that spent way too much money with > Oracle and is looking for any excuse to just use it.
