You're certain buffering is not affecting this? Could Row buffering be on?

Other than that, I've seen this a few times, when one user has a table open and a record locked, and someone else is trying to do a REPLACE ALL - the replacements do not get made properly sometimes. I had to resolve this by having only a single user allowed to open the table in the process which allowed REPLACE ALL, everyone else out of the table...
