As stated by Tony and Seva, SQL Server has a row limit of 8KB - but TEXT
fields don't add to this
If you've got VARCHAR fields which aren't indexed or used in a WHERE
(excuding IS NULL) then make them into TEXT - it's a minor inconvenience,
but it's an easy "get around"
If you really need to use TEXT fields in a WHERE, then you can always use
CONVERT to make them into "virtual" VARCHAR fields... slightly slower, but
it works
