Memo Field will not accept more than 255 Characters 1

[mellay]

Hi! I have a Memo Field on a form in Access 97. It will accept a large amount of data, but will not save more than 255 characters when I move from record to record. When I go back to the original record, all data after 255 characters is missing. Does anyone have any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!! Mellay

If you have any formatting on the field, then Access treats it as a text field. Make sure your format property is empty. Maq B-)
