Crosstabs bug in spss v.15.0.1 with hotfix vista?

Ivan Encnas
I use the spanish version of spss v15.0.1 with the hotfix for vista, and
when i run the following sintax in a large database:
CROSSTABS
  /TABLES=Dur BY ID
  /FORMAT= AVALUE TABLES
  /CELLS= COUNT
  /COUNT ROUND CELL .
I have this result:

Recuento
    ID     Total
  0 1 4 5 6 0
---------------------------------------------------------------
Dur -7 0 0 0 1 0 1
 -6 0 0 1 1 0 2
 -3 0 0 0 1 0 1
 -1 0 1 0 1 0 2

 9 7 24971 5403 0 0 53533
 10 0 18210 4171 0 0 24761

Total  368 1248669 409163 241893 850 1900943

The values of Total row are ok, but the columns ID=5 and 6 are 0!

Now if I filter by ID=5, just to check what happends.
USE ALL.
COMPUTE FILTER=(ID=5).
FILTER BY FILTER.
EXECUTE .
CROSSTABS
  /TABLES=Dur BY ID
  /FORMAT= AVALUE TABLES
  /CELLS= COUNT
  /COUNT ROUND CELL .
USE ALL.

(?)!!!!!

I think the problem is with the size of the database, because i try with
smaller examples and the crosstabs works ok.
I try with diferents variables with %col and %row, and the problmen is
always the same, in some point, the crosstabs cells show always 0, but the
totals values are ok.

This patch of spss support don't mention to solve this problem.(and is
only for english versions)

It happens only in vista hotfix?, any idea?
Any new pacht coming?

Thanks a lot
