Hi...!<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Does any one know how to change text field limit in<br>SQL Server 6.5? I tried to change TEXTSIZE using SET TEXTSIZE 16384 but it did not work. I am only able to get 4096 characters. <br><br>According to Transaction-SQL HELP &quot;The DB-Library variable DBTEXTLIMIT also limits the size of text data returned with a SELECT statement. If DBTEXTLIMIT is set to a smaller size than TEXTSIZE, only the amount specified by DBTEXTLIMIT is returned.&quot;. So my question is &quot;How I can change DBTEXTLIMIT?&quot;.<br><br>I'll appreciate your help.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>- DesaiD<br>
