Thread: Custom Table Query causes locking

Custom Table Query causes locking Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

We have Custom table, 1-to-1 extension table on Account Table. It's called C_ITS_Account table. The Account Detail Form has fields on it from both the Account and the C_ITS_Account tables. When I perform this query in Enterprise manager
SELECT * FROM C_ITS_ACCOUNT ORDER BY CREATEDATE DESC
it locks the table and SalesLogix for the most part when you try to update info on the Account Details form. Any ideas why that query would lock the table? The same query on the Parent ACCOUNT table doesn't create a lock.

Hmm - as far as SQL Server is concerned, there is no relationship between the two tables (so querying one will not directly affect the other).

So the locks are being caused by the nature of INSERT/UPDATE statements coming from SLX, in combination with the read lock that SELECT asserts.

Suggest you use

exec sp_lock

to verify the locking behaviour - and why it varies between the two tables. You may also have to use SQL Profiler to find out which SQL commands are being issued and what is causing the locks. Not a whole load of fun

Or you could use the WITH NOLOCK hint on your EM query.
