text truncating on insert?

  • MS SQL Server 2000

    I have a field of type text:

    CREATE TABLE dbo.glb_email

      (

      email_id      int               NOT NULL IDENTITY (1, 1),

      type          varchar (200)     NOT NULL ,

      title          varchar (200)     NOT NULL ,

      subject       varchar (800)     NOT NULL ,

      body          text              NOT NULL 

      ) 

    I run this insert:

    insert into glb_email (type, title, subject, body)values('PAS-1', 'Add New Password, 'Subject Text', REPLACE('

    )

    If I run 'select body from glb_email'

    I only get 255 or less characters back! What gives?

    Is this a typo?

    'Add New Password' <-- missing single quote!

  • just a typo, do you know why my text is being truncated?

  • If you are using QA, check out the value of Tools/Options/Results/Maximum characters per column.
