Hi,

Some one please advise me regarding this problem.
Problem is that there is stored procedure running for
doing some work and it is working fine when you run
on back end.

When you run from front end through application it pop
up with error 'string or binary would be truncated'
and program stop in mid.

How to trace this.

Regards

it means its passing a string value which overshoots maximum length of one of fields in database.

yes, thats true but how to know there are 8 table running in that procedure
each table contain almost 15 fields and and 17 records are getting inserted.
and each table has own triggers almost 5,6 per table

check whats the difference in values passed when executed from frond end by debugging the app or running sql profiler in backend.
for finding exact place of error, you need to try running each query in batch and check individually. you can also check partial results by putting select statements in between.
