Also it doesn't make sense to use select top 40 without an ORDER BY clause. I think you may want to use derived tables and ORDER BY.

>I obtain "The text data type cannot be selected as DISTINCT because it is not comparable.". This is in regards to the syntax where the Url2 field does not exist in the Event table. What would be the proper syntax to have a union with the Event table considering that News.Url2 is char(74)?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
