Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkUnspecifiedA different isolation level than the one specified is being used, but the level cannot be determined.

When using OdbcTransaction, if you do not set IsolationLevel or you set IsolationLevel to Unspecified, the transaction executes according to the isolation level that is determined by the driver that is being used.

Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkChaosThe pending changes from more highly isolated transactions cannot be overwritten.
Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkReadUncommittedA dirty read is possible, meaning that no shared locks are issued and no exclusive locks are honored.
Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkReadCommittedShared locks are held while the data is being read to avoid dirty reads, but the data can be changed before the end of the transaction, resulting in non-repeatable reads or phantom data.
Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkRepeatableReadLocks are placed on all data that is used in a query, preventing other users from updating the data. Prevents non-repeatable reads but phantom rows are still possible.
Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkSerializableA range lock is placed on the DataSet, preventing other users from updating or inserting rows into the dataset until the transaction is complete.
Supported by the .NET Compact FrameworkSupported by the XNA FrameworkSnapshotReduces blocking by storing a version of data that one application can read while another is modifying the same data. Indicates that from one transaction you cannot see changes made in other transactions, even if you requery.
Remarks

The IsolationLevel values are used by a .NET Framework data provider when performing a transaction.

The IsolationLevel remains in effect until explicitly changed, but it can be changed at any time. The new value is used at execution time, not parse time. If changed during a transaction, the expected behavior of the server is to apply the new locking level to all statements remaining.
