subject: StartTransaction, Rollback

Hello all.
Please share your experience on this one, if any.
A guy at work uses StartTransaction and Rollback. These statements invoke 
some sort of record locking to preserve changes for a possible rollback 
operation later. If you push it too far Delphi tells you there are too many 
record locks. Help says there can only be 255 for paradox tables.
Now, the guy at work has found that sometimes he can delete a couple of 
thousand records and roll 'm all back, no fuzz. At other times he does get 
the message about the record locks.
He would like to know what is happening, why and when.
Groeten, Martin.
