Hi all
Apologies if this is an FAQ, but I could not find the answer I was
looking for.
I want to run two SELECTs, one immediately after the other.
I want to ensure that no other process updates the database in
between the two.
What is the best way to achieve this?
You probably want to put the queries in a Repeatable Read transaction,
or even a READ ONLY serialized transaction.

Thanks, Ron. That is exactly what I am looking for.
