Symptoms

Assume that you execute a statement to create statistics or execute a statement that creates statistics in the background in Microsoft SQL Server 2014. When the data values have over 15 significant decimal digits and the data distribution is not well distributed and rather dense at some thin ranges, the statistics cannot be created, and there is no error message.

Each new cumulative update for SQL Server contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous cumulative update. Check out the latest cumulative updates for SQL Server:
