BUG #: 16586 (Windows NT: 6.5)
SYMPTOMS
A query using a correlated subquery in the select list combined with an ANSI JOIN may cause a handled access violation (AV). The client connection will be terminated when the query is run.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, change the query to avoid using the non-ANSI syntax (that is, the = operator) for the join in the subselect.
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 is an example query that results in the handled access violation:
SELECT (SELECT count(*) FROM master_table JOIN Status ON master_table.ID = Status.ID AND Status.Code = 'COMPLETE' WHERE target_table.ID = master_table.ID ) FROM target_table go
