When i get a dataset from db, and I check the dc.DataType.Name value of
a column, it gives me "String" for that particular column.

How do i know if that String is a Varchar or nVarchar?

Thanks.

IMO you'll have to read the schema for this table. You may want also to
explain why you need this info as there is AFAIK generally no difference in
handling those columns...

I am calculating the rowsize left so that i can limit the length the
user can enter for a new column...
