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, use one or more of the following methods:
- Perform your query against the base table instead of against the view.
- Reduce the number of values in the IN list.
- Reduce the number of aggregate functions.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
MORE INFORMATION
After you install this hotfix, you can use trace flag 221 to change the SQL Server behavior. To enable trace flag 221 so that it is turned on whenever SQL Server starts, add the trace flag as a SQL Server startup parameter. To do this, follow these steps:
- In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click
Server Name, and then click Properties.
Note Server Name is a placeholder for the name of the server that is running SQL Server.
- On the General tab, click Startup Parameters.
- In the Parameter text box, type -T221, click Add, and then click OK.
- In the SQL Server Properties (Configure) -
Server Namedialog box, click OK. - Restart the SQL Server service for the new parameter to take effect.
Alternatively, run the following query in SQL Query Analyzer to dynamically turn on the trace flag.
DBCC TRACEON (221, -1)
However, if you do not add trace flag 221 as a SQL Server startup parameter, the effect of the DBCC TRACEON command is lost when the SQL Server service restarts.
A more efficient way to deal with large IN lists is to insert the IN list values into a temporary table. Then, remove the IN list from the query, and join the temporary table to the table.
