Great. And take no offense. People frequently use bold/italics (when supported) to grab the attention for fast readers on the essence of the post. Efficient communications for all, not just destined to you personally. It's not the same as all caps for sure. Thanks.

Oh, and the old column (TestColumnImpl) also shows _codePage = 1252 (well known windows single-byte charset) but there is no way to port that in a new column.

Thanks for answering. Sorry for resorting to bug first, but it seemed reasonable given the following. Unfortunately, the example I gave is just one way to reproduce. Another way is that I load a db/table/column (from an access 97 db if it matters), and I create a ColumnBuilder from it. So, I'm not actually involved in choosing the length or lengthInUnits; one would expect the columnbuilder to pickup all necessary information to duplicate the column spec. I have not seen any charset input anywhere...

Note that I was able to call columnbuilder.setLength(...) with 255*2 without error or warning, and it wasn't saved in the new table schema, it was the previous value from the columnbuildewr.setFromColumn(). ColumnBuilder cb = new ColumnBuilder(c.getName()).setFromColumn(c); if(c.getType()==DataType.TEXT) cb.setLength(c.getLength()*2);

cannot write as many chars as column max (about half)
