String or binary data would be truncated.

Asked by msl22 in MS SQL Server

Tags: binary, data, would, string, truncated

Hi,

Server: Msg 8152, Level 16, State 9, Line 1
String or binary data would be truncated.
The statement has been terminated.

This error happen when I tried to insert a value too long in a varchar column:
(insert "123456" in a column varchar(3))

Is there a way to tell the server to truncate the value and insert it ?
any Server Option ?
I don't mind if the value is truncate, but I have to make sure the value is inserted...

Thanks

Mary
