I have created a form that relates to data in an underlying table where the field is set to memmo.

when i bind a text box to the memmo field it only displays, allows input, for 255 characters.

How can i get the text box to display the full contents of the memmo field?

i have tried the help sections, in the vb section but cant seem to find anything.

thanx in advance.

you can mail me at ian@girven.freeserve.co.uk

Just realised that formatting with > makes the control act like a text box and truncates the data to 255.

by taking off the format it displays all the data in there.

hope this helps anyone else to
