Look up ntext, text and image in SQL books online. These types will let you store data blobs limited only by the storage space on the server. They do have limits on the types of queries you can run on them so make sure they fit your needs.

Use an ADO.Net parameter to pass the data in rather then building the SQL dynamically. If you have to build dyanmic sql, '' gets translated to ', so 'father''s' is stored as father's. This is typically done with a call to Replace("'", "''")

That's what I told you how to do. '' is a string escape code for ' in sql just like \t for tab in C or "" for " in VB.

Yup, at least that is Standard-SQL, should work with most Databases, for shure with SQL Server and Oracle.
You could try it out from Enterprise Manager or Query Analyser by raising a INSERT statement from there.

hi everyone,

What problem ? You said this:
'I followed the instructions, but it didn't work'.
You obviously did not follow the instructions, but without clear description of the sort of errors you're getting, it's impossible to work out how and where.

I believe I followed the instructions. I did the steps in: To install the sample databases and samples after Setup. But then when I tried to register the AdventureWorks Database, in the New Server Registration Dialog Box, I clicked on the AdventureWorks (in the Connect to Database listbox), then I clicked TEST button, I'm getting an error says: "Cannot open database requested in login...."
So I thought it was installed but not attached, so what I did I used the ATTACH context menu in the Database, i looked for the .mdf file, but I'm still getting an error.
But I was wondering why when I installed AdventureWorks it didn't go to this path: n:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.n\MSSQL\Data. It when here: n:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Samples
\AdventureWorks OLTP. And I'm getting an error when i'm trying to attach it
hope this makes my problem clear and hope you can help me.
Thanks!

Used this code to create the field in the table:
ALTER TABLE invoice add number INT IDENTITY(10000,1) NOT NULL
Now I must be forgetting something because when I bind a page to the field
and load it for entering in the record that corresponds to it I'm not getting
the number from the database.
I cannot remember how you do this. I'm using C# but I don't consider this a
C# question. I think I need to do something else SQL Server side but I'm not
a dba and I don't remember...{SIGH}
Anybody know how I get the autonumber/identity to kick me the next number
in order on the table? I've only got experience with this in Sybase and I
don't see a correllation between this instance and Sybase at all...
Ideas?

When are you trying to get the number? After INSERTing a new record into the table? If so, use @@IDENTITY[^].

I'm actually trying to put a new record into the table and am getting errors on that field. Trying to figure out why. I know you have to pass a special parameter I just don't remember what it is...

A few changes. First off it was required in my code. I changed that. Still got some funny errors so I just removed the field as I don't really need it on the insert. I only really need the field if I show/edit the record. Once I took it out of the page and removed the references I rebuilt the solution. Everything went fine after that. When I show/edit the record it now is behaving the way I'd expect.
It has been *SO* long since I worked in the database end of things. I use to be great at data modeling but it's been years. Now I have to remember all of this again.

Hi all
We have an application written in VB.Net.It crashes (without showing a message or something) whenever we try to fill a dataset using a DataAdapter (any type of data adapter) with huge data under microsoft windows 98 (Our RDBMS is Microsoft SQL Server 2000)
Does anybody know what is the reason? and what should we do to prevent the crash?
Please help me.
Thanking you in advance
