Dear Brinkman,
First I wonder one thing: Why are the queries long running
in the first place? Might it be because improper indexing
of the attribute in the tables? Maybe it can be worth to
have alook at this to see if you can increase performance
this way. You might very well be able to speed up the
execution of your queries by rewriting them and/or
adding a few more new indexes to the table.
I know that within the SQL server one are able to track user
process, create new jobs, and delete jobs, and a thought around
this - which is untried by me - might be to uses these facilities
provided by SQL server, and build a kind of tracking system that
keeps track of the users queries with a kind of "ticket", when
a user sends a cancel request, you simply forward this cancel
message with the proper "ticket" to SQL server, and then you
lets the RDBMS do the killing of the long running process.
How ever I haven't done this my self, and don't even know if
it possible, but it might very well be worth in your case to
have a lock at it. In the SQL help, you might start out by
checking out sp_add_jobb and sp_delete_job.
Cheers,
/Anders
