I have a db where I had been using a text field and I'm converting it to an
ntext field so that the db can potentially support unicode at a much later
date.

The problem I'm having is this: I'm not just opening the db and changing the
field to ntext, I created a new db and created the new table with ntext and
am importing the data from the original db using a query. On one record in
particular, I get a right-data truncation error. Do text and ntext fields
not have the same maximum length? Is the size of the data more limited in an
ntext field as a result of using a larger number to represent each
character?
