I am using a inline sql statement to update a table (in oracle).

Some how this statement doesn't run.

sUpdateStatement = "UPDATE AUTOTRADE.RATE_ADVANCES SET TREASURY_RATE = '" + dLiveBM + "'";

OracleConnection _oOracleConnection = new OracleConnection(sConnectionstring);

_oOracleConnection.Open();

OracleCommand _oOracleCommand = new OracleCommand(sUpdateStatement, _oOracleConnection);

_oOracleCommand.CommandText = sUpdateStatement;

try
{
//code hangs here . no output at all. I don't know whats going on.
//the sUpdateStatement has the following sql statement.
//"UPDATE AUTOTRADE.RATE_ADVANCES SET TREASURY_RATE = '5.04'"
_oOracleCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
}
