A couple of easy questions

Dear all,
1)
I was wondering myself, how many characters can handle Sql2k when you define
a field? Such limitation is common for any object? I mean, tables, indexes,
jobs.
I've got an ASP application which allow the user create fields and I would
need to know that rule in order to define a maxlenght value.
2)
I had in my EM remote servers added but today they are dissapeared although
now are currently up. Does anyone ever experienced such behaviour? It coul
d
be a shutdown of that server or even if that server is off from the client
vanishes...
Thanks a lot for your suggestions,
Please post DDL, DCL and DML statements as well as any error message in
order to understand better your request. It''s hard to provide information

1)

2)
I have not, but did you refresh your EM?

Hi Enric, do you have 'Open object explorer and new query' in Tools/Options
dialog under Environment/General leaf?
I noticed that if object explorer is not mentioned in selected combo,
servers don't show up.
Peter|||Hi Rogas,
I don't see that option. From Entreprise Manager->Tools->Options I have two
leafs: General and Advanced. In General there is nothing related with you
said.

A baffeling problem between a text box and database table.

I have a web form with a text box that when submited gets put in a field in a table in an SQL database. Only 50 characters were being passed to the table. I gave the text box a max size of 200 characters and also found that the field in my table was set at 50 char. I had my SA set the field to 200 char. I rebuilt the solution and yet I am still only getting 50 charecters in the table. Any ideas?Show how you are setting the field in SQL Server.|||This is what I am doing to update my database.
'comments' is the field in question.
