Hi All,

Let's say I have 2 sessions open... session one updates a table and does not commit and can view the new updated data. session 2 is able to read the old data. How can session 2 read the old data if session 1 has an exclusive write lock on the table. Exclusive lock happens when updating a table?

Thanks,
Paul
