What is the maximum # of characters that a table in SQL Server 7.0 can have?

Hi

It is prefered that you keep the name under 128 characters because sysname datatype for SQL Server is 128.

Thanks Kim1. I thought it would be much, much less than that. I'm glad to know I can use that many though. It will make naming the ones I have to create a lot easier. Thanks for the info. Rob
