title: Moved to 64-bit Win7 desktop, using 32 bit SSMS, certain XML fields not coming back consistently
body: <p>Just got moved to a new Win7 64-bit desktop. I'm running the 32 bit version of SQL Server Management studio against a SQL Server 2005 DB server (not my choice, that's what was installed). </p>
  
  <p>If I query the top 10 rows of a certain table one of whose fields is XML, about 50-90% of the records that come back don't appear to have their XML fields populated. </p>
  
  <p>It gets weirder - some XML fields do not pose this problem at all. I suspect it has something to do with the length of the data in the field. I've played with the "XML Data" sizes in Tools => Options but it didn't fix the problem. </p>
  
  <p>This was not a problem with Management Studio on my WinXP 32-bit desktop.</p>
  
  <p>Has anyone else seen this? Anyone know of a solution/patch? Would running the 64 bit version of SSMS solve the problem? </p>
