FIX: Errors with Procedures Containing Aggregates and a HAVING Clause

• Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5

SYMPTOMS

A stored procedure that contains an aggregate in the HAVING clause may cause error 107 or a handled access violation (AV) if the procedure must be recompiled or reresolved. The procedure will be recompiled when the server is restarted or the procedure is otherwise flushed from cache, or when the WITH RECOMPILE clause is used. A reresolution occurs when a schema change is made to any of the objects referenced in the stored procedure.

The following is error 107:

Msg 107: The column prefix '' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query.

WORKAROUND

To avoid the error 107 or handled access violation, do not use an aggregate in the HAVING clause. As an alternative, you can drop and re-create the procedure after starting the server or after schema changes are made to any of the underlying objects.
