Hi !
Can you help me please ?

I had to change our database (not empty) collation from French_CI_AS to SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_CI_AI.

: Database\Properties\Options\Collation. Change it !

After doing this, i noticed that only data on fields with “varchar(max) ” type were truncated.
Like, even if i put 100 characters by the interface, no problem but only 12 characters are really saved in the database. Troncation happens only on these types of fiels et always the same number of characters 12

Can anyone knows why and how avoid this ?

Thank you very much and sorry, i do not speak english very well :(

Hi Shanku,

You can not do that. You will have to create new table with your desired column order and insert values from old table to new table. Drop the old table and rename the new table with the name of old table.

However, the order of column does not matter to database.
