SQL Table Generator

I'm trying to use the SQL Table Generator to pull back 7 columns from the HD_workitem_detail_view. I have the connection string set up and working properly but when I choose the intended table, I get the following error.

"Cannot get definitions from table HD_workitem_detail_view. Error message: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation of the server is not responding."

By default it is pulling select * from table and that is what's causing the time out. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

I believe there is a timeout

I believe there is a timeout value property that gets created with the generated component. You can try a combination of boosting this value as well as marking up the "select * "

Another Option

is to use a stored procedure to retrieve only the 7 colums you want. HD Workitme detail has a heck of a lot of data in it, so retrieveing all of it has little value.

By using a stored procedure, you can target exactly what you want.
