I have a text box that contains cc info and can vary in size from 200 to 2000 characters. When the text box is placed in the DETAILS section, it prints fine,
but when I put it in the REPORT FOOTER section, where it needs to be, it's limited to 255 characters.
Does anyone know how to get around this???

Just a thought, is the report footer section large enough to take up to 2,000 chars. Maybe if you increase the size of the report footer area in design view and see what happens.
