BUG #: 16543 (6.5)
SYMPTOMS
A handled exception error (EXCEPTION_INT_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO) may occur during a
query that joins a table with a row size over the 1,962 byte limit. If this
occurs, the client connection issuing the select statement is terminated,
causing a "connection broken" error on the client side.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use text fields instead of large character
fields to avoid creating tables with a rowsize over 1,962 bytes.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server
version 6.5. This problem has been corrected in U.S. Service Pack 3 for
Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5. For more information, contact your
primary support provider.
