Question

In my table in the DB, I have these data types for some of its columns..

Address1 nvarchar(200)
Address2 nvarchar(200)
City nvarchar(200)
State nvarchar(200)

Now in my aspx page I need to display this data in text boxes. What should be the max length
for the text boxes for Address1 text box, Address2 textbox, City’s text box and state’s according to what I have in my DB ?

How do I apply the max length validation check on these text boxes in my page ?

YEs, stick to what you have in your database, otherwise you might get truncation issues.

Have a look at TextBox.MaxLength Property
