Because a referenceable instance is stored in a row of an object table,
modifying attributes of referenceable instance requires an object lock, which means
rows corresponding to the object instance in a object table should be locked.
This can be done by calling the Edit (OraRef) method of the OraRef object. An object lock is release by the Update (OraRef) method. The following example modifies the age attribute of Person object.
set OO4OSession = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
set hrDb = OO4OSession.OpenDatabase("ExampleDb", "scott/tiger", 0)
set Customer = hrDb.CreateDynaset("select * from customers", 0&)
set Person = Customer.Fields("aperson").Value
Person.Edit
Person.Age = 45
Person.Update
