if you are talking about changeing the column sizes then you can use Alter Table. smaples at http://www.devguru.com/technologies/t-sql/7120.asp

i want to increase the size of table in a database .

do you want to increase the disc space used to store the table ? this is handled by SQL server internally.

The size of the table is the size of the data in the table.  As you add more data, it will expand up to the amount of available free space in your database.  If you are out of free space, then you have to expand the size of your database.

a temp table is in a database-- and it is increasing as users are accessing the database. even though we are truncationing daily at 6AM in one DTS job, on some days we are forced to truncate manually.(when users retreive large data)

the free space in the database is 250MB. size of db is 4GB

what might be the option?

(the temp table is in users database not in model db)

a true temp table (created with #) is stored in tempdb, not the user database.

If it's an temporary table in your database, used as some sort of cache table, then you will need to expand the database if you are running out of space.

is 250MB not sufficient ? shd i increase more
