Answer / gourvendra singh

You can update the seqno which is having the rownum=1 only.
for eg:
If you have a table dept in scott user, you can try the
following command:-

update dept
set deptno=90
where rownum=1;

the above will update the record of the table which having
the rownum=1. and if you want to update some other record
then you have to make query to make the required record as
the first record of the table.
