Remarks
<FieldTypeMods> values must conform to SQL Server Transact-SQL syntax conventions. For more information about this syntax, see "CREATE TABLE" in SQL Server Books Online.
If you update a <FieldTypeMods> element, NSControl Update deletes and re-creates the event class to which it corresponds. This includes dropping and re-creating the SQL Server tables and indexes used by this event class.
Important If you update a <FieldTypeMods> element, any data existing in the original SQL Server tables is permanently deleted.
