Hi,

I'm a newbie dba administering Personal Oracle 8i installed on Windows 2000 machines in a classroom setting. Last week we had the class creating their own tables and populating them with their own data. We checked at each machine to see that they had created the tables and could query them. In only a few cases (2 of 16 machines) did I have the group 'commit.' A week later, they came back and most of the groups found their data missing. Of the 3 or 4 groups that still had their data, only one or two had 'commit'ed. I'm wondering what happened to the data. I should say that all the tables they had created were still present; they just had no rows.
