Somehow along these lines, yes. I just had a look at the sources, and SqlServerQueryExperssion.getStatement() will 'inject'
HOLDLOCK tokens into the JDBC statement for OQL queries. Not knowing a lot about MS SQL server, this could equally cause problems related to what you are seeing. It might be worth checking with the manuals that this is what Castor is meant to be doing wrt SQL server when performing a 'real' data base lock. Just a few cents worth ...
