RE: [PHP-DB] Windows, MSSQL varchar>255 caracters?

I fixed this issue by using a text field instead of a varchar field. For some reason, it didn't want to read anything over 255 characters, although the data was still stored. Maybe it's a bug, or maybe just a limitation.

Hi All. With the Microsoft SQL Server it is possible to make a table with fields of the type varchar which can have more then 255 characters width. When use a query to get the content, i only get the first 255 characters all others are cut off. (i connect to the DB via the mssql_... commands). Anyone has a idea how to solve the problem?
