Hmm, quite weird. begin "20 questions"...

Can you trace what's happening in the monitor when that StartTransaction
call is made?

Do you code this as

if not MyDM.MyTransaction.Started then
MyDM.MyTransaction.StartTransaction;

?

What versions of everything are you using?

How are you hooking up the transaction object to the connection object and
your statement objects?

What happens if you delete that transaction object in the IDE and replace
it with a new one of the same name?
