string parameter value greater than 250 length

[crystalhelp]

I am passing in a string to my report. It works if the string I pass in is less than 250 chars, but if it is greater, I get teh following error: 'Value does not fall within the expected range.' How do I resolve this?

There is a length limit option for the parameter, which I tried setting, but that doesn't resolve it either. Perhaps I'm using it incorrectly.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The limit is probably 254, not 250.

I think that your only solution is to create a second parameter if it's greater than 254.
