Reconsider your choice of database software? :-) You're accurately describing what would happen if you tried to stuff more than 255 characters into a VARCHAR field in most databases. If you need more space than that, most database provide field types like TEXT that can provide much more space. It sounds like Access isn't actually changing the field type. I suspect things would work if you tried with a new field or table. That or you can try something like MySQL or sqlite... -- Chris Devers ¨ÖCnWüÉ
