You don't have a filter on bsmemo table so every record in bsmemo will be locked one by one.
>Thanks for looking that up. The k_seqno keys are unique autoinc keys in bsmemo. So I would assume that it would only need to lock the 3 records in bsmemo where the keys matched the 3 recs in c_memo. Am I correct or do I have it wrong?
