Chapter 7: The <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> Tutorial<br />

Table 43: <strong>OpenEdge</strong>-to-MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong> Conversion utility (2 of 2)<br />

Interface element Description<br />

MaximumVarchar Length 8000 characters. The server LOB data types<br />

(text and varchar(max)) can be greater than<br />

8000 bytes. If you are using a single byte<br />

character set and your character field display<br />

<strong>for</strong>mat or <strong>SQL</strong> width is less than 8000, a<br />

VARCHAR data type will be used. If the value<br />

is greater than 8000, then a server LOB type<br />

will be used.<br />

NOTE: When Use Unicode Types is<br />

selected, the Unicode variable character type,<br />

NVARCHAR, is used when the maximum length<br />

is 4000 or less. The maximum length must<br />

now be set at 4000, the adjusted default, or<br />

less. If your character field display <strong>for</strong>mat or<br />

<strong>SQL</strong> width is greater than 4000, then a<br />

Unicode server LOB data type is used. Keep in<br />

mind that because UTF-8 character encoding<br />

can be up to four bytes, only 2000 characters<br />

are guaranteed to fit in a Unicode field.<br />

Codepage Accept the default code page value.<br />

Collation Accept the default value.<br />

Insensitive Accept the default value to retain<br />

case-insensitivity.<br />

from <strong>OpenEdge</strong> to MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong>.<br />

dialog box is to reduce clutter on the main<br />

fields on it. See the Table 44 <strong>for</strong> the details<br />

you are prompted to enter.<br />
