Hi Syed,

This is fine, but as you can see from your problem, it leads to all
sorts of enqueue problems. As I initially though, it is sounding a lot
like "lazy developer syndrome" - but obviously, I can't be 100% sure!
;-)

Well, this can lead to two separate options. The first is that whatever
UPDATE they planned on doing will now fail because they were stuck on an
enqueue wait for 60 seconds then it timed out.
The second option is to wait on the enqueue for 60 seconds, then loop
back and wait another 60 second.
In the first case, the application is not processing as it should. In
the second case, you have the same problem that you have now. Nothing
has actually changed.
So I'm a little puzzled as to how any of this solves your actual
problem. Or are they planning on some other course of action when the
WAIT 60 option times out?
Cheers,
Norman.
