letter writing?

[richard luft]

I'd like to use access to issue letters to individuals. There might be > 1000 characters of text in each letter--far more than can fit into a textbox item in an underlying table. The underlying table has items such as 'addressee' 'date of letter', and 'title' as its rows. Can anyone suggest how I might be able to store the 'text' of the letter in the table (or any other way to store such info). I realize that I can store it in a wordprocessor program, but since these letters only go to one or two individuals, I have no use for mailing list capabilities (and I know nothing about the use of 'mail-merge'). Any help will be appreciated.

Change the data type from Text to Memo in the table property sheet
