When I add an ORDER BY clause I get the following error.
"Server: Msg 8626, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Only text pointers are allowed in work tables, never text, ntext, or
image columns. The query processor produced a query plan that required
a text, ntext, or image column in a work table."
So far, Google has failed to find a work around. Any suggestions?
Paradox can do this query. I cannot believe that SQL Server can't.
