I have a comments field in my database, I have set the datatype of this field to "Memo" to allow more than 255 characters, this displays fine on the form but when I try to display it on a report it cuts off the characters after 255 characters.

Please help
 
Are you using your table or a query as the RecordSource in your report? Set the CanGrow property to Yes.

I have just setup what you are talking about and I am getting 1444 characters to display while using a memofield from a table through a query as the RecordSource in my report.

Post back with just how you are passing this data.
