I have a form with a memo field. This field is based on a table with a field set as a memo data type. The problem is that although the form field lets you type endlessly, it only saves 255 characters. A memo field is supposed to let you enter up to 64000 characters. Has anyone else ever had this problem, if so what was the solution?
 
I have found the answer in another forum. For those of you that might have the same problem, simply remove any formatting from the field in both the table design view and the field proberties view in the form. Everything you have typed that didn't show before will miraculously appear.
