floating point exception - unexplainable - even after SP4 still ge

I am in the process of translating Access 97 Databases into SQL, and working
through many very complex interrelated queries which work fine in Access. On
translating many queries all work fine apart from when I get to the top leve
l
query which effectively nests many level of queries. On trying to display
this top level view I get the horrible
Server: Msg 3628, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
A floating point exception occurred in the user process. Current transaction
is canceled.
Now I have tried to narrow the problem down, even removed any floating point
datatypes from the view but I still get the problem.
I now have a view which works if I join 3 tables but on trying to join 4
tables gives the exception. It does not matter which table I miss out...
Am I hitting some limit of SQL which does not exist in Access 97? Or is
these a nasty bug floating around which cannot handle nested views of a
certain level...
Could some clever person please could come back to this posting urgently
with when there will be another fix for this problem, or email me at
getalifestyle@.easyget.bizHi
The fix as described in
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;892840 is not
included in SP4, so you need to get a seperate hotfix for it from Microsoft.
