RE: Max length of a VARYING field

It works rather nice for those of us that don't teach though ;^)


Thanks,

Actually, seems to me that coding something like VARYING(*MAXwhatever)
solves that problem rather neatly. It just makes things more
complicated to teach and learn, which was the very first point I made.
Though, you didn't comment on that part of it...

No I didn't. I have no productive response. :)
