Option Access Constraints SHARED Other users can work with the same relations as you. Depending on the option they choose, they can have read-only or read and write access to the relations. PROTECTED Other users can read the relations you are using. They cannot have WRITE access. EXCLUSIVE Other users cannot read records from the relations included in your transaction. If another user refers to the same relation in a START_TRANSACTION statement, Oracle Rdb denies access to that user. READ You will only read data from the relations. WRITE You will store, modify, or erase data in the relations.
