Thanks! I ran the example code and it seems like every UPDATE fails with errors like the following:
SqlStep Timeout on handle: 8 (rc = 6) SqlStep tries on handle 8: 200 BeginTrans Timeout/Error on handle: 8, Errorcode = 6 Write Thread: DB is busy! tries = 142 handle = 8 Looking at the database contents it looks like none of the updates were successful at all (though I didn't look extremely carefully). Are these errors normal?
