Suspend report requests from a table during an update

Hi Everyone,

We are using SQL 2000 and DTS to populate some tables with summary data from other SQL tables. As part of this, we delete records in the destination table and then re-populate from the other tables. Our problem is that users can run reports on this summarized data at any time, and if they order a report during the update it may return invalid data.

Is there a way to suspend the reports from accessing the destination table until the processes are complete?

Thanks.
