[P.S. -- John, sure i will let u know ,but first i want to be satisfied myself with what i have done .Don't want to give any wrong info.]

Hi John!!
Ya that is solved.
Actually i am not sure whether it was a prob .
B'coz next time i checked another table and data
were copied into the staging server db.
Previously i was checking diff table which r not
used during staging.
In WCS doc there is list of Staging tables.
Pls let me know if u want any more info.
