[AccessD] Strange limit

John,

Can we see your original SQL that only returns 17 values, even though you asked for 22?

Subject: [AccessD] Strange limit

I am running the folliowing query:

SELECT     Column_Number, Column_Name
FROM         _DataDB101.dbo.DB101_ConsumerLayout
WHERE     (Column_Number IN ('241', '54', '64', '132', '191', '186', '133', '63', '139', '185', 
'129', '151', '201', '147', '127', '113', '261')) OR
                       (Column_Name IN ('145', '141', '187', '52', '122'))

Notice that I am asking for about 22 values in an In() clause.  SQL Server is cutting it off after the 17th value returned.

I never knew there was such a limit though of course there would be some limit.  17 is rather small.
