Like Buffer(MyView,30,5,2,300) I'm the director of Information Systems for a large company. We are a 100% Microsoft/SQL Server shop. I can assure you that Microsoft's Index Tuning Wizard is one of the real software gems you want to make use of. We recently used it to trim the runtime of a large customer matching job from 8 hours down to 57 minutes! The success you have with this tool is often remarkable. Happy to hear your BUFFER statement worked for you. However, never overlook the usefulness of the Index Tuning Wizard. The results are sometimes unbelievable.
