The information in this article applies to:

BUG #: 16035

SYMPTOMS

When you select from a view with an aggregate subquery using an ANSI style outer join, you receive an access violation error message.

For example, the following view will cause this behavior:


   Create view testview as
   select titles.title_id, totalcount = (select count(*) from titles) from titles
   Left Outer Join titleauthor On titles.title_id = titleauthor.title_id 


WORKAROUND

Replace Left Outer Join with "*=" to avoid the access violation.


STATUS
