field too small?

[Agent_J]

I got an error message that says "The Field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add. Try inserting or pasting less data." Anyone know how I can remedy this ? I was using a combo box btw.

Oops. One of the "TEXT" fields needs to be changed to MEMO. If memo is too small.. then you'll need to use OLE Object.

Goto design view of your table and make the above changes.

change the limit from the default 50 to a higher limit, 255 char is the limit for text, if your entering more than that in a combo one would suggest your design is flawed
