Ben, I have no clue whatsoever what ntext fields are but you could try a combination of the following stuff:
You can try executing this Transact-SQL piece on a query to the server: SET TEXTSIZE 64512 This will change the amount of text returned by a SELECT into a ntext or nvarchar field. If you the upper limit of the size of your text, you can try selecting it as a substring such as: SELECT SUBSTRING(myfield, 1, 4096) AS myfield FROM mytable Now, I never faced such issues but then again, I seldon do windows and the last time I've dealt with MS SQL Server was in 1999...
