I will leave reviewing your posted code to others or yourself, but I would like to suggest that you use the audit command of Oracle to record updates and deletes against the table that you said was only inserted to. This will allow you to discover if there is back door activity or other processes accessing the table while you continue to review the code.

I believe that the audit trail will tell you that 1) you have an application design code problem ( no hits) or 2) you have an access problem (records in audit trail) which probably means reviewing the code is a waste of time.

Good luck.   Received on Wed Mar 25 1998 - 00:00:00 CST
