I have a form in Access 2000 linked to a SQL2000 back end via ODBC. On this form I have a text box that is bound to a field, with a max of 250 characters, however when I type into the control, it stops at 150 characters. The field actually origially had a lenght of 150, but I moved it up to 250, but the text box control doesn't seem to accept anything over 150. I've relinked the table and recreated the control. I can even open up the table directly, (in Access) and type directly into the field, but the additional characters don't show up in the text box control. Is there a different control that I should be using for this? Any ideas? TIA....
