In the case of: BEGIN WORK; SET x=1; bad query that aborts transaction; SET x=2; COMMIT WORK; Only the first SET is done, so at the end, x = 1. If all SET's were honored, x = 2. If no SETs in an aborted transaction were honored, x would equal whatever it was before the BEGIN WORK above. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
