Article ID: Q167797

Microsoft SQL Server, versions 6.0 and 6.5

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.
