Field enlargement Access (1 Viewer)

[Ju]

I had a database already done in Access 2000. I want to add some space in one field. First, I went in creation mode and just enlarge the field. Second, I went in type of field and chose text and put 255. But it stil doesn't work. Could you help me ?

What about it didn't work? Did you get an error message?

I get an error message, that said : "text too long" but I use about 20 characters.
Thanks!
