So, I'm updating my database with ntext and nvarchar for future support of Unicode for internationalization, and I'm running into this problem:
<cfqueryparam> for CF 5 has only cf_sql_varchar and cf_sql_longvarchar for the cfsqltype attribute... Using an MS SQL 2000 db the stored procedures work fine ( or appear to ), however on an MS SQL 7 db, I get the message "error converting data type text to ntext" ... If I change the value of the input parameter in the stored procedure to text and then explicitely convert the value during an insert or update in the procedure, it works okay... What I need to know is this: 1) Is there a way to make this work with <cfstoredproc> and <cfqueryparam> and ntext fields on CF 5 with SQL 7 2) Is SQL 2000 just fooling me into thinking it will work with CF 5 at all because the <cfprocparam> or <cfqueryparam> tag will pass an iso-latin value regardless? I think I need to know these in order to make decisions about how to move forward with this... Likely most companies looking for a properly internationalized cms will be able to afford a license or upgrade to CF MX, but if it's going to require MX I'll have to document this on my site, and in either case I need to figure out how to make allowances for SQL 7 on CF 5.
