Actually, yes, your $GET_DB_DATA statement handle will be active and maybe MySQLMSSQL prevents other queries from updating the table. I recommend reading all data before trying updates.

    I put all the data returned from the SELECT query into a 2 dimensional array, processed that and everything went well. Thanks for your help!
