Locking

I have set the Isolation Level to Read Uncommitted but the tables are still
locked after i have run a select in Query Analyzer, can anyone explain why
this is ?
Can you provide more details? Hoe did you set the isolation level. Can you reproduce this from two
connection in query analyzer?

|||That doesn't help us reproduce the problem as this is only one connection, and I assume that the one
connection doesn't block itself. Are you saying that this connection is blocking another connection,
or is it blocked by another connection? NOLOCK should not acquire shared locks and should not honor
exclusive locks, hence I'm asking as much details as possible, preferably a repro.
