Hi everybody.

Hopefully one of you can provide some insight to this one. I recently met
someone who said they were having trouble with MSSQL crapping-out (that's a
technical term) when querying a 65 million record db. Their SQL statement
which they were apparently trying to run from Query Analyser, was something
like....

select
    acolumn,
    bcolumn,
    ccolumn
from
    tablename
where
    (acolumn = 'boo' AND bcolumn = 'yikes') OR
    (bcolumn = 'haha' AND ccolumn = 'clown')


I'll try to get the exact query they were trying to execute. However any
thoughts at this point? Is 65 million records more than MSSQL can handle?
Any suggested workarounds?.... perhaps search in chunks of records as
opposed to all of them?

Thanks,
Karl
