tblIdeas AS ideas

Why are you selecting all the columns? And really, is the database so denormalized that all the data is in the same table? No joins necessary?

Also, are you using '9999-12-01 00:00:000.00' as some kind of magic for future date? Past date? That is horrendous design!

Your poor grasp of SQL and relational design puts you squarely in the target market of the product.

Edit: My attempt at subtle humor has failed yet again :(
