ALTER TABLE tblresponseheader ALTER COLUMN clientnum SET STATISTICS 1000; ALTER TABLE tblresponseheader ALTER COLUMN locationid SET STATISTICS 1000; ALTER TABLE tbllocation ALTER COLUMN clientnum SET STATISTICS 1000; ALTER TABLE tbllocation ALTER COLUMN divisionid SET STATISTICS 1000; ALTER TABLE tbllocation ALTER COLUMN regionid SET STATISTICS 1000; ANALYZE tblresponseheader; ANALYZE tbllocation; Then run the EXPLAIN ANALYZE again.
