Note Because of file dependencies, the most recent hotfix or feature that contains these files may also contain additional files.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, remove the bit column from any indexes where it is a key column. Alternatively, you can also avoid the problem by changing the data type of the bit column to tinyint. Before you change a column's data type with an ALTER TABLE command, you must first drop any indexes that include the column. You can re-create the indexes after the column's data type has been changed.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4.
