String or binary data would be truncated.

What should I be looking for when this error appears? I have a temp table and I have the column width set and I am thinking one of the columns is not large enough to hold the data? I have increased my column widths, but still getting the error.

Is there something else I should be looking at.

Thanks!

You get this error usually when you try to update, say, varchar(10) column with the varchar(50) variable.

What are you trying to insert into the table? Are you sure you know how many characters it *actually* is?
