The OpenEdge Release 11.7.2 Service Pack includes the following updates for OpenEdge SQL:
ALTER TABLE table_name ALTER COLUMN column_name set PRO_SQL_WIDTH new_column_width—You can execute this command against an online database.
Grant and Revoke—You can perform regular operations concurrently as these statements take more granular locks. For example, if you submit Grant or Revoke in a session, then users connected to other sessions can perform any other operations (Read/Write). This change removes all impact on ABL operations caused by Grant and Revoke SQL statements.
ALTER TABLE table_name ALTER COLUMN column_name set PRO_SQL_WIDTH new_column_width—You can execute this command against an online database.
