    SQL servicer script, data type for MEMO


    Hello All:

    I am working on a VB(6.0) project which load data into a SQL Server (7.0)
    database. I wrote a SQL script to Create_Table on the database. What data
    type I can use for a "memo" field on a table? I used verchar (255) but it
    was too small to hold data on the field.

    Thanks in advance,

    DH

    Thumbs up Equivalent Datatype of MEMO in SQL Server 2000

    Hi !!!!

    The Equivalent data type in SQL Server 2000 is NTEXt.

    Size of varchar can go upto 8000 so you can always use varchar(8000).

    Problem with using NText and TExt is that while one cannot use it relational operators with it.....
