We've created a series of document templates (MS Word) over the course of a few weeks. In the last day or so the templates have begun throwing an error when run. A screen shot is shown below.
A SQL trace has enabled us to isolate the cause of the error to a sql script that fails with the description "The data type image cannot be used as an operand to the UNION, INTERSECT or EXCEPT operators because it is not comparable".
The trouble is we don't know what caused this issue or how to correct it.
