If it isn't a huge number it might be worth taking the time to fix them rather than ignoring non-compliant SQL code via SET ENGINEBEHAVIOR.

So far the biggest problem I have is that at one point they lost the source code for this thing and had to ReFox it. Blah blah blah they lost 100% of the comments inside the code. From what I've gathered that happened "a year or so ago" so perhaps I will actually find a comment in here somewhere at some point but so far I haven't seen any at all. I've asked if they have an old backup of the source prior to that happening - figure if push came to shove it would be nice to at least have it for reference. Apparently they screwed up the version control gizmo they were using so bad that they couldn't tell what they had in production anymore, so they opted to refox the live .exe.
