well if u wanna commit after 1000 records u could very well use a cursor and within the loop keep a counter which will indicate the no. of records inserted...upon reaching 1000 records just commit and reinitialize the counter..

i have written the "Pseudo" code below:

declare

	cursor c1 is
	SELECT * from schema2.abc;

cntr number := 0;
begin

	for c1_abc in c1 loop
		insert into schema1.abc values contained in c1_abc;
		cntr := cntr +1;
		if (cntr = 1000)	then
			cntr := 0;
			commit;
		end if;
	end loop;

/* the following commit is 4 last set of records that might not b commited*/ commit;
end;

rgds,
Ams.

Hi,

We are transferring data from one table in a schema to another table in another schema with identical fields using INSERT INTO schema1.abc (SELECT * from schema2.abc) The source table has 1.6 million records. The tablespace increases to consume full disk space and yet seems to be demanding more so the operation doesn't complete.

Is there a possibility to process commit after every 1,000 records? Is there any other way of doing it?

TIA! Aleem
