| I'm using ROWLOCK in my select statement, to lock a particular row...begin tranSelect * from <table>(with ROWLOCK) where <column1> = <value1>but when I try to update the same record in a different session, it is not getting updated since it is locked...But if i try to update a different row in the table, it is not allowing that too... and I'm able to update any record in the table only if I commit the transaction...I'm not sure why the ROWLOCK is locking the complete table instead of the row...* My table DOES NOT contain any Indexes...Your thoughts in this regard would immensely help me... and correct me if am wrong anywhere...thans in advance... |

It is the TRANSACTION that locks the records, until a COMMIT or ROLLBACK is performed.

Rowlock locks the whole table
