FIX: A Derived Table in the Group By Clause Causes Handled AV

ID: Q158806

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5

BUG #: 15855 (6.50)

SYMPTOMS

A SELECT statement using a derived table in the Group By clause may cause a handled access violation (AV). In addition, the access violation's stack dump may go into a state where it continuously writes the stack to the errorlog. If this occurs, the errorlog will grow very quickly.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, do not use derived tables in the Group By clause.

STATUS
