if you are using the mssql/TDS driver, then you have to (from memory)

a) extend the limit size for blobs:

; Valid range 0 - 2147483647.  Default = 4096.
mssql.textlimit = 2147483647

; Valid range 0 - 2147483647.  Default = 4096.
mssql.textsize = 2147483647

(for some reason I can't find these settings in php.net, but one of
our servers is set up like this)

b) cast the column to TEXT

HTH.
