retrievng text or ntext data from column whose data type is ntext/text

Hello,

In order to retrieve data from text type column whose length is greater then 4000 (for text) the data is being truncated i have tried using readtext through textptr, substring set textsize and all the related stuff i could find on books online but nothing did the job. The results from all these techniques return only 4000 length data and nothing greater.

Can anyone please help me with it. An example along with it would be really useful.

Thanks,
Uzair.
