Hi all,
At a point I understood that the field property is set
to "Memo" so that one can add as many characters as
needed unlike the "Text" property, this concept is
working perfectly in my forms allowing me to describe in
more than 255 characters, however, when viweing reports,
the field "Memo" fails to show more than 255
characters!!, could not know why, and how do I rectify
the problem, your help is appreciated.

If you attempt to sort, group by, or format a Memo field it will be
truncated. Just be sure not to specify any sorting or grouping on the
field, and don't set the Format property of the control on the report.
