Hi,

You must be aware of the fact that SQL Server does Page Locking. If your table size is less then 2K, It locks the whole table evenif you'r selecting only one row out of it. There are several clauses which can be added with SELECT which affects the locking like HOLDLOCK etc. ( I don't rem. all of them). Look in detail for these clause in help/manual of SQL Server.
