JDBC for SQL Server - Herong's Tutorial Examples

∟SQL Server CLOB (Character Large Object) - TEXT

∟Create Tables with CLOB Columns

This section describes how to create tables with CLOB (VARCHAR(MAX)) columns in SQL Server server.

SQL Server support CLOB with the regular VARCHAR data types, but with a special length value called MAX:

In order to test CLOB columns in SQL Server server, I used the SQL Server command line interface to create a test table with one CLOB column: 

herong> sqlcmd -S localhost -U Herong -P T0pSecret

1> -- Set AdventureWorks as the current database
2> USE AdventureWorksLT2019;
3> GO

1> -- Create the test table with a CLOB column
2> CREATE TABLE Article (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY,
3>   Subject VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
4>   Body VARCHAR(MAX));
5> GO
