RE: How to re-arrange the nullable columns

Yeah,

Perfomance wise there is no benefit(if yes pls correct me), But i read in manuals as, if the not null columns were resided as a last column of a table, then it consumes more storage space then the other case.

Any one have any suggestions regarding this issue....

Regards,
Nirmal.
