I am currently working with Sql Server 2022 and AdventureWorks database. First of all, let's set the "Read Committed Snapshot" to ON:
use master; go alter database AdventureWorks set read_committed_snapshot on with no_wait; goThen, from Session 1, I execute the following code:
--Session 1 use AdventureWorks; go create table ##t1 (id int, f1 varchar(10)); go insert into ##t1 values (1, 'A');From another session, called Session 2, I open a transaction and execute the following update:
--Session 2 use AdventureWorks; go begin tran; update ##t1 set f1 = 'B' where id = 1;Now, going back to Session 1, what happens if I execute this statement?
--Session 1 select f1 from ##t1 where id = 1;See possible answers
