Column width

i am using reporting services 2000 & my backend is sql 2000.
In one of my reports, i have a parameter which needs to take value more than
1400 characters but in reporting services report view i can only give 1200
characters. Kindly let me know how do i resolve this issue.WOW! A parameter with 1400 characters? Where does that value come
from? Probably not from user input I'll bet.
Anyway, if the SSRS max is 1200, I doubt there's going to be a way to
expand that. Alternatively, you're going to have to look at
abbreviating the param value. Obvious I know, but without more info,
it's going to be hard to offer helpful suggestions. Post some more
details please and we can give it a shot.

collection name question

1 of my SQL 2000 servers has few databases that acts as backend for web based
..NET applications, most of them is in English and they have collection name:
SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_Cl_AS.. I just noticed that recently deployed db which
stores Italian text has collection name: <empty> .. my questions are what it
should be? are there any potential problems we can run into? can you change
it afterwords?
TIA
Hi Rafal,
Databases can not have an empty collation. You can check the collation for
the database in Enterprise Manager by right-clicking the database and
selecting Properties, or by executing
SELECT DATABASEPROPERTYEX('<db name>', 'Collation')
in Query Analyzer.
The only place I can think of where you might see an 'empty' collation, is
when you use the table designer in Enterprise Manager and you look at a
character column that has the default collation for the database.
