Chad, I guess I am kind of lost as to what the problem or what your trying to do then. I have used paypal in many apps and have had no problem storing the customers order in a db sending the data to paypal with the itemid being their cart/orderid. Then paypal IPN notifing my cart the txn was successful.
All the data is in the db that they typed without it being truncated.
