Hi Niklas, > So can varchar be longer than 255 chars in MSSQL (or in any SQL)? Yes. SQL Server can handle varchars up to 8,000 characters - I assume Oracle and DB/2 are similar, but I don't know for sure. Getting 255 characters back is a common problem that does have workarounds: http://www.google.com/search?q=only+get+255+characters+from+mssql Cheers Jon
