Dear Jaikiran, Thanks for your being concerned about my issue. I am quite sure that we do not use rs.next unless in reguler if statements and when one record is to be obtained from it: | .... | String sql = "select count(*) as COUNT from table"; | if (rs.next()) { | ..... | int count = rs.get("COUNT"); | } | So, it is okay. And I have been in writing J2EE application about 4 years. It is okay. Since we run JBoss as a service and not a DOS console, I have to review this "SendSignal" to achieve the goal of getting those records, I will update you once get a concern. Will be waiting for the JBoss till it gets into that status and get the logs of the threads. Thanks to you, you gave me a great idea. Nabieh.
