I added the subquery and now this thing consistently takes more than five minutes to return 7100+ rows. Any suggestions? Thanks again, you guys are the best.

GO|||also and in the meantime I am studying how to index the view in question. I have rarely worked with views and I have never created an index before.
ddave|||One more time...
Be nice and post the results of:
PRINT @.StrQry1
...so we can focus on the SQL and not the dynamic concatenation...|||to do what blindman is asking, change your EXEC(@.MySQL) to PRINT @.MySQL and post the result.|||You should try to avoid sub queries.
SET @.StrQry1 = '(SELECT 1 AS Counter, Q1.SubsidyLevel, VEL.*
FROM dbo.ViewEligibilityPHC VEL
LEFT JOIN dbo.MEMB_LISHISTS Q1
on l.LISThruDate is null
AND l.Deleted = ''0'' and VEL.MEMBID = Q1.MemberID

I also suspect that massive index/table scans causes your problem.
Please post the execution plan for the query.
How to:
print @.StrQry1
copy the SQL to a new query windows.
Execute
set showplan_text on
go
your query here...
Copy and paste the text from the result window to this thread.|||Actually we resolved it by altering the view. We needed to add one field and we just added it to the view instead of going through all this. Thanks anyway.
ddave|||the word dynamic in the term dynamic sql almost makes it sound like a good thing. it deserves a name more akin to it's nature. maybe kludged sql? maybe poor perfroming insecure code?|||Perhaps "Injectable SQL"? Or maybe "Objectional SQL"?
It has its uses, but buy can it be abused.|||Why are you using dynamic sql ?, I usually only use dynamic sql if table names need to be assigned dynamically based on certain conditions. Where do you append the "%" for the likes, as part of the input variable ?|||That's when I use it also to dynamically name tables for example. I got it that way from my supervisor. Sigh, I guess I will just have to blame him. :)
ddave|||And when you have to use dynamic SQL (or injection-sql) do NOT use do it by concatenating the parameters into the sql string. Use sp_executesql with parameters.
