FIX: Insert View with DEFAULT VALUES Causes AV

• Microsoft SQL Server version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

An insert performed on a view with the option DEFAULT VALUES can result in a thread level Access Violation. The following provides an example where the Access Violation would occur:

   CREATE TABLE ta (col1 CHAR(1) NULL DEFAULT 'a')
   GO
   CREATE VIEW vi AS SELECT * FROM ta
   GO
   INSERT INTO vi DEFAULT VALUES
   GO 

WORKAROUND

Perform the insert with the option DEFAULT VALUES on the base table rather than through the view.

STATUS
