I want to know whether , when an error occurs while updating a bulk of records, can I get the details of the record that failed. If there is a way please let me know, how to do itWhat type of errors do you expect? Is space issues? Data Issues or what?
If space issues, then you can youse oracle 9i new feature called resumable space allocation.
If data issues, you can handle it in the execption of pl/sql.
