hi folks,

im writing a database application and am wondering why its not possible to have more than 255 text characters in an entry. i really need to have a lot more. do i need to move on to a bigger database solution? any recommendations?

thanks!

If you gave an infinate number of rednecks, an infinate number of shotguns to shoot at an infinate number of street signs, they would eventually write Romeo and Juliet in braille.
