sql server programming : Opening a large table in Enterprise Manager

Hi,

I'm using SQL Server 2000 and I have a table that holds
around 45,000 records. When I open it in Enterprise
Manager by selecting return all rows, all transactions
that access this table from my application will give a
time out error until I close the table from Enterprise
Manager.
Does Enterprise Manager lock large tables when opening
them? And is there a way to change this option?

Thanks in Advance,

Grace,

What type of locking scheme are your transactions using (Read Committed,
Read Dirty etc.)?

I have VB .Net objects under MTS. The Vb .Net components set
transaction=required. I use SQLDataReader, that uses forward only read
only scheme to retrieve data from SQL Server.
The application works fine when other tables that have fewer records are
opened from Enterprise Manager at the same time when the application is
retreiving data from these tables.
