You can use the CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE statement to define the maximum
characters stored per column. If you are talking about limiting the maximum
character length to something less than the column width... In SQL Server
6.5 you could use a trigger, in SQL Server 7/2000 you could use a trigger or
a constraint.
