I suppose if the seq value has some real meaning, yo umight need to fuss around with a way to ensure things are 'in sequence' so to speak. Typically I could care less, the sequence is usually a PK and has no real meaning to the end user/gui. IIRC, there is no guarantee a numerical sequence in Oracle is always one apart. You could get 1,2,3,4,10,11,20. That is what I've been told at least.

Vacuously its considered a transaction I suppose. Further, if a single SQL fails in CF, a commit is never issued for it. I have always understood transactions to be a group of SQL statements that you want to execute in concert.
