SQL Server varchar(8000) being truncated to char(255)
In one of my tables, I have four fields that are all varchar(8000) -- not
that I ever need that much text, but I never know with our customer service
department. Well, I created one report, that seems intent on truncating
these fields to 255 characters. In VB, I can see all the text entered (on
average, about 500 to 1,000 characters) in all my RichText boxes. But for
some reason or other, the problem comes into play once I start using SCR7.
When I try to print the report from VB6 or from SCR7 itself, I get the same
results. What's up with the text truncation? Does it just not like the
varchar datatype?
Thank you kindly...
