What will happen if a column containing char type data is changed to the nchar data type?
Answer / Pintu Kumar
Changing a column from CHAR to NCHAR in SQL Server will have a few implications. First, the new NCHAR column will store Unicode characters rather than ANSI characters like the original CHAR column. Second, if no explicit length is specified when altering the column, the default length (1) will be used for each character stored. This could result in increased storage requirements due to the larger size of each Unicode character compared to an ANSI character.
