programmingcompares the two rows and can report to the user the differences. After the row has been updated, I need to
refreshthat row in the result set so that if the user continues to scroll back and forth, it will see the updated
information.

What's your original query?
What's the query that the driver ends up synthesizing when you call
refreshRow()?
Have you run that query separately under EXPLAIN ANALYZE etc?
Do you have knowledge of the structure of the original query (i.e. are
you building it yourself, or is it user-supplied?) If you do, have you
considered running suitable update/refresh query yourself directly? (The
driver has limited knowledge of your database structure and may not be
able to produce 'good' queries for update/refresh via the resultset
interface)

doesn'twork reliably.)
From memory the driver doesn't implement TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE at all
(that type of resultset is quite strange..)
