DB-Library applications and Transact-SQL scripts use the Transact-SQL SET IMPLICIT_TRANSACTIONS ON statement to start implicit transaction mode. Use the SET IMPLICIT_TRANSACTIONS OFF statement to turn implicit transaction mode off. Use the COMMIT TRANSACTION, COMMIT WORK, ROLLBACK TRANSACTION, or ROLLBACK WORK statements to end each transaction.
