Good day,

If you're using a large data-type for a column (such as varchar(max),
nvarchar(max), varbinary(max), text, image, & xml), you can go beyond
the 8060 limit.

Alternatively, if you aren't using large data-types, you can vertically
partition the table so some of the columns would be in one table while
the other set of columns would be in another table.

Hope this helps.

N.I.T.I.N.
