Bug #: 50000506 (SQL Hotfix)



Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2005 fix release.



SUMMARY
This article describes the following about this hotfix release:
 * The issues that are fixed by the hotfix package
 * The prerequisites for installing the hotfix package
 * Information about whether you must restart the computer after you install the hotfix package
 * Information about whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other hotfix package
 * The files that are contained in the hotfix package



SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario:
 * In a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) package, you create a new DECIMAL data type column by using the Derived Column transformation.
 * To divide the dataset into groups, you use the Aggregate transformation and the GROUP BY clause on the DECIMAL data type column.

In this scenario, the output rows of the Aggregate transformation are divided into multiple rows. However, the values of the grouped DECIMAL data type columns are the same.
