Hi,
Out of the mysql docs:
Values in VARCHAR columns are variable-length strings. The length can be
specified as a value from 0 to 255 before MySQL 5.0.3, and 0 to 65,535 in
5.0.3 and later versions. (The maximum effective length of a VARCHAR in
MySQL 5.0.3 and later is determined by the maximum row size and the
character set used. The maximum column length is subject to a row size of
65,535 bytes, which is shared among all columns.)
Regards,
Michael
