 Well, since you never care about posting your table defitions or sample
 data, do you really expect me to post a tested working query? Maybe you
 could at least post the actual query you tried, and the error message?
 
 I am sorry if my tone is somewhat irritated, but it is very difficult
 to assist when the person asking for help refuse to dislose vital
 information.

 Again, can you post the actual error message, and the exact query you are
 using? If you get a timeout, it may be that you are using a linked server.
 (Not that you ever said that you are using linked server, but at this
 point I'm starting to feel like a participant in a quiz competition.)
