Are both of these fields defined as blob datatypes? Since one table works and the other does not work this leads me to question whether the application is performing consistently. Have you verified if data is entered into that does not display as expected?

I mentioned this in my last reply, however didn't mention one part. With this suite of tools , I can replace a text area with a mini html / cms tool. Basic formatting etc. Now in the 2nd table where the insertion works. The form works great, retains all the formatting of the original document.
