Summary:

PROBLEM ID: PRSQL9103002

SYMPTOMS

A query with an outer join on a bit column GP-faults SQL Server.

CAUSE

Selecting a bit column with any other column when performing an

outer join with an ORDER BY clause will result in the GP-fault.

WORKAROUND

Without the ORDER BY clause, the GP-fault will not occur. Selecting

into a temporary table, and then selecting from the temporary table

with the ORDER BY, will eliminate the problem.

1.1. This problem has been correct in SQL Server version 1.11,

which is available from Microsoft Product Support Services. For
