Two options come to mind that are purely FORMS related and do not required any db changes...
- Use a timer that expires after a few seconds- if possible.
- Use the DBMS_ALERT (I think thats it) package.
Even with a ProC program, you will not be able to read another row until the process writing it has committed.
