Hi

I need to set the query-time out on Sqlserver for few mins ex(15 mins).

I have found the option in SqlServer through EnterPriceManger In SqlServer Properties Connection tab, I found the default one as 600 sec. but the queries are still executing more than 600 sec. can you Please let me know the solution if I need to time out the Sql Query which should not execute more than the specified time (only by the options setting on the SqlServer).

Thank you Narendhar

Hi Reddy Prasad

Thanks for the response.its working out. I have observed that either the query stop first itself or it will exceute till it gives the result

ex: I have a table Borrower. Once I set the 'Query Governer Cost limit' on server for 5 sec, when I execute the query 'select * from borrower'. it cancel the query by giving a messge estimated cost of this query is more than the configure value.

after that I set the 'Query Governer Cost limit' to 9 sec. this time it got executed but taken 18 sec.

is it going to work this way or can I find an option for canceling this query once it crosses 9 sec's

Thank you Narendhar
