Data corruption problem Access03

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



I have a table with several memo fields that display the entered data
correctly; queries on the table also display the returned data
correctly. I can copy and past the data from the fields into notepad,
and it displays there correctly as well.

However, when I write the data to a text file (Print #1, qry!
[FieldName]) the first 255 characters are rendered correctly, but all
characters beyond 255 are garbled (question marks, undefined
characters such as ANSI 0, 1, [Space] 32, and a couple of stray alpha
characters).

I have used this technique in other applications for many years with
no problem, and this one is stumping me.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Dave
