OK, now I am really confused. What do you mean by "OJB isolation levels?" Are you not 
referring to java.sql.connection.setTransactionIsolation(int level)? Unless OJB is 
using some magic that I am unaware of, "RDBMS isolation levels" ARE always used, at 
least the default isolation level for the specific RDBMS. Does this have anything to 
do with the LOCK TABLE sql command I heard OJB used?

Obviously there is a information gap on my part here. If you can, please point me to 
where I can go to read more about this. Thanks,

Correct!

The OJB isolation levels *do not* touch the db! They only concern the ODMG
object level tx management.

The isolation levels of the underlying RDBMS are not used by OJB!
