No: <quote> A transaction cannot be set to SNAPSHOT isolation level that started with another isolation level; doing so will cause the transaction to abort. If a transaction starts in the SNAPSHOT isolation level, you can change it to another isolation level and then back to SNAPSHOT. A transaction starts at the BEGIN TRANSACTION statement. </quote> http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/ms173763.aspx I could rip out all cftransaction tags and replace them with custom versions, but for this application that is not a very appealing prospect. If I could find how to change the default transaction isolation level from read-committed to snapshot for all transactions in the database (cross database transactions are not relevant for the issue at hand) I would be happy too, but I can not find that option either in MS SQl Server 2005.
