Hi all,
Thank you all those for responding to the frequent
commit question. So members suggested using count,
and loop. May I have real example. (OK, I'm bad at
pl/sql). Site table has 2 million rows, how to so a
commit, let's say 5000 rows. Site_id is unique in
site table. How does the counter fit in the following
update sql?
update site a set a.site_code =
(select c.area_code
from site_location b,
area c where a.site_id = b.site_id and
c.area_id = b.area_id);
I put a counter is a sample code, and update runs 10
times! then commit, then runs another 10 times! then
commit .... I must miss something. Please give me as
mush detail as you can. Thank you so much!
Andrea
