>When we use the WITH syntax to force a query to use a specific index, we cannot use the NOLOCK option. This means it opens the door to SQL Server to lock something during the query. Is there a way to force the NOLOCK to be in effect? I have this option at 100% in my queries. Before that, we had problems.
Michel,
You can do this...
WITH (NOLOCK, INDEX (MyIndex))
I'm not sure I'd advise using this approach in production - more of a design issue than anything else. But I think that syntax will work.
