    Hello and welcome to SSC!

    I'm afraid that you haven't really given us enough to go on there. Remember, we can't see your data, your expected results or your actual results. So without a reproducible script that shows your problem, there isn't much that anyone can do to help you.

    If you could set-up DDL and sample data scripts that reproduce the issue that you're experiencing, then I'm sure someone will be able to offer advice.

    For now, can I just point out that NOLOCK (or READUNCOMMITTED) is not a magic go faster pill. It has serious side effects that affect the integrity of your queries. Have a read through these articles for more information: -

    Article 1

    Article 2[/url]

    Or do a search in your favourite search engine for side effects to NOLOCK.
