I understand the Limit 'Bytes per string column' for SQL 2000 is 8000. Any Idea whether it is the same for VIEWS? Is there a Limit?


Thanks!

Well you could always just use text if you need to go beyond the limitation. SQL 2005 provides the varchar(max) data type.

Sorry.... What I meant is... the Bytes per row limit is 8060 and whether that will apply also for views?



Thanks !

What exactly are you trying to do in a view?
