Message FRM-40509: ORACLE error: unable to UPDATE record. |
Cause of Error This behavior can occur when the view associated with the current block cannot be updated. Views cannot be updated if Oracle8 cannot trace a row and column in the view back to its corresponding row and column in the base table. For example, you cannot update records using views created based on multiple tables and views that eliminate duplicate rows from the query result. |
Solution Summary To resolve the problem, associate the data block with an object that will allow you to update the record. Or, consult your Oracle database administrator or the object owner for an alternative way to update the record. |
