Thank you, Knut.

Is there a large performance penalty for specifying 
ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ||ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY?
For the sake of efficiency, should my code set those only when it is 
necessary to reset the ResultSet?

Pavel.

You need to specify that the result should be scrollable when you
prepare the statement. Something like this:

PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement(
        sql, |ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, 
||ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);|
