BUG #: 16455 (Windows NT: 6.5)



SYMPTOMS
An INT divide by zero exception error occurs when you run a query joining tables with wide rows. The scenario that reproduced this bug was a select with a join between a very wide table (2,698 bytes row length) and a view with one where clause. The handled exception error stops the query.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5 Service Pack 2. This problem has been corrected in U.S. Service Pack 3 for Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5. For more information, contact your primary support provider.



MORE INFORMATION
The following query caused the access violation:

select  pr.*,p.* from tblprospects pr, tblprospectsdetail p   where pr.prospect_key=(select min(p2.prospect_key) from tblprospects p2) and pr.prospect_key=p.prospect_key

You can usually avoid the exception error by reducing the select list or the where conditions.
