I previously posted the following message, but forgot to
mention that I have included "can grow" in the properties
for the field on the report. However, the field does
not "grow", and the amount of space allowed for the field
is much larger than the amount of space used when the
record prints. What else could cause this problem?

Original post:

I have a report that shows all information for an
individual employee. All the fields print on the report
just fine except for the memo field. Only part of the data
in the memo field prints. It looks like only the first
255 characters print, although I haven't actually counted
them. This makes no sense to me since it is a memo field,
not limited to 255 characters. All the data appears on
the form for data entry. How can I make all the data
print on the report?

Only the first 255 characters will print if:
- there is formatting in the Format property of the text box on the report,
or the field in the table
or
- the report is based on a query that aggregates data.
