I'm still doing the traces but in the meantime I thought I'd ask a follow up question. The query is selecting from a view. The view returns hundreds of rows relatively quickly. The query itself is selecting DISTINCT rows from the view. When I take out the distinct it returns almost instantaneously. With the distinct in it takes 40 - 50 secs. Does this ring a bell with anyone?
