Sparce Look Up issues

[als110]

Hello,

I currently have a job that does a normal lookup and in the look up a have sql that joins a few tables, groups by a key and returns a count (*) for the given key. when I do the normal look up the job returns the correct results, however the input for this job is very small and the look up data will be very large so I want to swich it to a sparce look up. When I run the job with a spacre look up the job behaves in the same manner as the normal look up except for 1 thing. Any record that looks up and its count (*) > 9 it says that the look up was successful but puts null in the field instead of the count (*). if the value is < = 9 the look up works fine. Any suggestions.

Thanks

Aaron

That's weird! Have you provided a reproducible case to support? What's the data type of the return value?

SELECT COUNT(*)... should always return a row, so the lookup "succeeds"; how does it come to be null?!!

Are there any errors or warnings logged?
