I have a column in my SQL-2005 database that used to be a ***varchar(max)***, but it has been changed to an ***nvarchar(max)***.

Now I need to update my hibernate mapping file to reflect the change, and this is what it used to be:

> 
> <element type="text" column="Value"/>
> 
> 
> 

When I try to run the application, the following error appears:

> 
> org.hibernate.HibernateException: Wrong column type in [Table] for column Value. Found: ntext, expected: text
> 
> 
> 

What should I put in the 'type' attribute to correctly map the column as an ***nvarchar(max)***?

I've tried setting the type to *ntext*, but hibernate didn't know what that was. I tried setting the type to *string*, but it treated *string* as a *text* type.
