Jonathan,
Thanx for the reply. U r saying that remove method
will only applicable to one instance.. its well and
good But my question is...
Why did not EJB specification provide any method which
deletes records based on a condition like a finder
method is taking a parameter and it is returning
Enumeration or Collection object.
Thanx in advance
Raj
