Subject:      SQL to SPSS truncated text
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Hello,

I am importing some data from SQL into SPSS and I am frequently getting the
error:

>Warning.  Command name: SAVE
>SQLFetch (getting tables) failed :[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server
Driver]Troncamento a destra della stringa di dati.

Which traslated into English is about "truncating the data string to the
right".

How can I avoid that from occuring? Is there a SPSS parameter I can set? Of
should it be something changed in the SQL Server configuration?

TIA,

Luca
