SQL Server 2000:

The column (emp_comments) in my table is of datatype nText. What is the equivalent data type I should be using for my property in .Net C# code to map to this column.

Right now I am using String to map this column. See my code below

private string empComments;

public virtual string EmpComments {
get { return this.empComments; }
set {this.empComments=value;}
}

Thanks in advance.

String is the correct mapping type in your C# code file.

In the mapping file, you can declare an ntext field as a StringClob.
