Access Won't let me input a certain amount of text i need. How can i boass the limit.
 
The maximum size of a text field is 255 characters, and the maximum size of a memo field is a little over 65,000 characters. There are no other text options. Jim Lunde

We all agree your theory is crazy, but is it crazy enough?
 
If the amount of text you want to enter will always be large, the info. that jimmythegeek gave is correct. However, if the amount of text sometimes fits and others doesn't, you need to chnage the field size in the table to be able to accomodate this.
