tc writes "Im am running a DTS package to update a SQL2000 database, which uses the option join in transaction in some of the task. When users try to query(read only) the database from the web page when I am updating the database they get a lot of timeouts. It seems as if the tables that the DTS package is working on is locked and do not free up until the package is complete. This package runs every 30 minutes. Is there anything that I can set that will still allow the users to read the tables even though the task in the DTS package have a lock on them."
