Although that is the length set by the designer, it is not the length allowed for data storage. Try storing your data...you will see that it fits just fine.
SQL Server Booksonline
Unless the text in row option is specified, text, ntext, or image strings are large character or binary strings (up to 2 gigabytes) stored outside a data row. The data row contains only a 16-byte text pointer that points to the root node of a tree built of internal pointers that map the pages in which the string fragments are stored. For more information about the storage of text, ntext, or image strings, see text, ntext, and image Data.

You don't have the "Text In Row" option turned on do you?
SQL Server Booksonline
You enable the text in row option for a table by using sp_tableoption. With the text in row option set to ON, Microsoft® SQL Server 2000 stores text, ntext, or image strings directly in the data row

You do not want it on, you want it off.
Have you actually tried to store your data? Do you receive an error?
Try this from the query anazyzer:
sp_tableoption N'TableName', 'text in row', 'OFF'

to answer this, no, i don't get an error at all, just am not able to put any data into the field if it is set for 'text'. the words, Long Text, are in the field instead. Is this just some sort of link to the actual data? how do I see if it is in there? I am actually copying/pasting text from a document and it includes some html tags. would that cause a problem?
thank you.

Yes. Some of the characters in the html are probably causing the problem. Try using the query analyzer, or some other tool, to get/set the data. The enterprise manager isn't a very good tool for data manipulation.
Gotta go for the day. Bye.

I disabled the 'text in row'. I reset my field to 'text', and the length changed to '16'. Now, in the field when i open the table, this <long text=""> is in the box, and i am unable to enter my data into the field.
i am confused, why wouldn't it allow me to declare text and then put all my data in the row? i thought text held over 2bill chars?

In a database management project ,we have used Oracle at back-end and VB.Net at front-end.
In Oracle ,we used object-oriented features and created nested tables.Now we want to accesss those nested tables using ADO.Net .We are in search of answers of following questions:
1.Does Dataset class of ADO.Net support nested tables ?
2.If yes,can XML be used to specify schema of nested dataset ?
3.If not,how to manipulate nested tables of Oracle in ADO.Net?
As a temporary solution , we are retrieving main table and child table in two different tables;but this mechanism of database handling is affecting preformance of project badly.So we are in need of some other efficient solution.We will be thankful for your response if you will be able to help us to get out of the problem .Please reply as early as possible.

Not having used Oracle for a very long time this concept of nested tables sounds very much like a standard one-to-many relationship with the nested table being at the many end of the join. 1 parent row to many (nested) child rows.
kam_ps wrote: 1.Does Dataset class of ADO.Net support nested tables ?
It depends on what a nested table is. If it can be described as I have done above then yes it can support it.
kam_ps wrote: 3.If not,how to manipulate nested tables of Oracle in ADO.Net?
So long as you can access these "nested" tables through an SQL statement then you can pretty much do anything you like. All ADO.NET does is pass SQL Statements around and receive result sets. The Oracle data provider will handle that for you.

There is nothing like nested table in ado.net. But, the solution is there where the relational features of dataset comes in picture.
fetch both the tables separately and add a foreign key relation between them. Then using methods like getchildrows, etc, you can get ur prob solved.

Isn't that what I suggested?

I thought to clear his basics that dataset doesnt support nested tables 
So that he is not another babbage.

I have a little problem:
I use ado to connect to a mysql database (version 4.0.12) and mysql odbc driver(3.51).
The system works fine but recently i ran into this problem:
I've installed it on a LAN consisting of 5 win98SE stations making one of them the database server.
The program works on two of them quite ok but fails on the other 3. The thing is that the other 3 computers still connect to the db but some of the querys fail.
Actually is not the querys that fail but rather the call to _RecordsetPtr->GetCollect("field")
To be more precise a query like "SELECT id, name, address FROM clients" works.
A query like "SELECT clients.id AS id, clients.name AS name, ocupations.kind AS kind FROM clients AS clients, ocupations AS ocupations WHERE clients.ocupationid = ocupations.id" fails when i do a call to pRecordSet->GetCollect(L"kind") with invalid pointer.
Another thing to remember is that the database server is installed on one of the computers that do not work. The stations on which the program works connect to this computer via LAN
So, what do i do? Where should i search for the bug? I really have no ideea.
I never had this problem on winxp and this program works on several win88se networks

Nevermind. It worked after installing MDAC 2.8 sp1.
It didn't work with MDAC 2.8 though..wierd since this is a win98se computer and on winxp i didn't upgrade anything

Hello,
In SQL Server 7.0, I can easily create tables and import data from other sources such as access. Is it possible to do the same with SQL Express Edition?
Thanks in advance,
Rashar

If you can export to MSAccess you should then be able import the MSAccess tables to SSE

I think I *may* have found a better way. Go to SSMSE and use the wizard to create a new database and make it sql7.0 compatable. You'll find that choice under the select a page window (click the option page).
HTH.

Hey, Thanks for your replies...
So I take it that I will need to install SSMSE? I don't recall seeing that anywhere after I installed studio 2005? If so, I will download it and run the wizard.
Thanks again,
Rashar

Hi
I have a data in sql table as
EventTypeID Content EventID
1 abc 1
2 gdfg 2
3 fdg 4
4 fgh 54
1 er 54
2 dfg 34
3 fgfdg 34
1 eert 45
2 dfg 4
The result i want is, when i fire a select query , the result should be IN THIS FORMAT like this
EventTypeID Content EventID
1 abc 1
2 gdfg 2
3 fdg 4
4 fgh 54
1 er 54
2 dfg 34
3 fgfdg 34
4 NULL NULL
1 eert 45
2 dfg 4
3 NULL NULL
4 NULL NULL
So which query will do this ?

Looks like you are missing a column. If you are trying to match sets of EventTypeIDs (1,2,3,4) you need to identify the sets some how. I can't see anything in your data that would indicate a relationship between the sets except order (which is unreliable and not guarenteed).
Go back to take a closer look at your design.

Hi Sandeep,
Your reply is:
Select x.EventTypeId, z.Content, z.EventId from (Select distinct EventTypeId from tbl) x left join tbl z on x.EventTypeId=z.EventTypeId
This way you can get the expected result.

We're on the process of shifting from Single to Distributed Database.
We have a program (say Mainprogram) that updates the central database, specifically Table1.
Also, we have many existing little programs (say Subprogram1, Subprogram2, ..etc) that also updates the central database, also the Table1, just like the MainProgram. We need to resolve this in such a way that only one program will update the central database.
It is certain that the Mainprogram will only the one who will update the central database. How will our little programs handle this. These little programs need also to update the Table1 in central database.
Or is this OK? Please help. I dont know anything about DB. Im using Oracle 9+ and VC++ 6.0
