| You might want to consider a table an not a column.If you have a object like a Yak you probably want to store keywords like Yak, hairy, smelly, etc. If you store that in a column, you'll wind up with your field looking like this:yak, hairy, smellyIf you make a table of keywords and create a one-to-many relationship between your Object and your keywords it's going to make querying the data much easier and faster.But if you want it in a column, a VARCHAR is the way to go.Michael<Yoda>Use the Search page you must. Find answer you will. |
