Is there a limit on the number of fields that I can add togheter ? I have 6 fields (numeric) that needs to be added togheter for a report, I'm doing that on a view and apparently field number 5 and 6 does not get added, any ideas why ?

SELECT AName, [Day 1] + [Day 2] + [Day 3] + [Day 4] + [Day 5] + [Day 5+] AS Total, [Day 1], [Day 2], [Day 3], [Day 4], [Day 5], [Day 5+]
FROM View1

Thanks!
Igor.

If there is a limit to the # of terms in an expression, I am sure it is larger than 5!

Are any of the values potentially NULL ? If so, each should be surrounded by an ISNULL() or COALESCE() function.
