Thanks Tom, I found this article on trouble shooting deadlocks and it was quite helpful. I think I need to create an index on the table.
http://blogs.msdn.com/bartd/archive/2006/09/09/Deadlock-Troubleshooting_2C00_-Part-1.aspx In step 4 of the article I ran the Analyze Query in DTA and its recommendation was to create an index. At least I think that is what it is telling me. DTA had this T-SQL in the "definition" CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX [_dta_index_JobTicketColor_5_662345474__K2_K3_1] ON [dbo].[JobTicketColor] ( [JobTicketID] ASC, [ColorName] ASC ) INCLUDE ( [JobTicketColorID]) WITH (SORT_IN_TEMPDB = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, DROP_EXISTING = OFF, ONLINE = OFF) ON [PRIMARY] I will read up on what this T-SQL is doing before running it. > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Chiverton [mailto:tom.chiver...@halliwells.com] > Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 10:17 AM > To: cf-talk > Subject: Re: deadlocks > > > On Thursday 17 Dec 2009, Chad Gray wrote: > > I have a feeling in need to optimize my data and not the CF code. > > Making it run faster will not stop you getting deadlocks (entangled pairs > of > conflicting transactions).
