Reet writes "Hi, i am in hurry with inserting long html code into sql server text field, using stored procedure. The application that generates the html is written in c#. The strings longer than ca 900 characters are eaten up, I cannot see any error messages. Can anybody give a hint what to do about it?
thanks a lot, Reet"

Are they being truncated on insert or when you try to view?
Try looking at datalength(col) to see how long the text value is.
Use substring to look at the data past 900 chars.

DTS can be used in a similar way.
