Query too large to be displayed

I have a query that has a long list of item #'s used in the "where" clause in selecting records of MS SQL database.  Because it is a dynamic calling to the database, I am prompted by Native the Database Query approval window, which I normally would click "Run" to start the execution.    But this time, there was a message, "Query too large to be displayed", and I couldn't run.

 

Is there a way to skip the prompt?  Or any other ways to work around.  Thank you if you can help.

  • You can adjust the query-option so that the approval will not be required. But warning: This is a global setting, so it will applied to other queries as well:

     

     

    Alternatively you could try to shorten your query, accept the approval and then put back your original query. But this might then not work for other users.

      Hello Imke,

       

      Thank you very much for your help and after unselected that option, I could run without any problem!  Thanks again.
