The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SQL Server 6.0
  • Microsoft SQL Server 6.5

This article was previously published under Q167797
BUG #: 16746 (6.5)

SYMPTOMS

You receive a handled access violation error (AV) when both of the following conditions are true:
  • There are two or more aggregate functions in the SELECT list of the query.

    NOTE: The AV does not occur for a single aggregate function.
  • One aggregate function is used in the WHERE clause of the select query that uses the derived table.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, avoid constructing such queries involving a combination of two or more aggregate functions in the select list and an aggregate function in the derived table.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server versions 6.0 and 6.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
