No, just onto the page. The problem is when I try to update the DB
fields using this field and on other. The Db is not updated as it is
only getting the first 255 chars. I know I could do like '#field#%' but
this is less than ideal and I would rather not.

Giles, tell me you're not outputting this in a text field?

Yup, completely sure it is a memo field. The way I found the problem was
to compare the output I get on the page with the field in the DB. The
one on the page was 255 chars, the one in the DB was much longer.

If I try to do a select distinct on just the memo field it won't let me,
if I do it with another record too it does let me. Possibly it is not
doing a distinct select on the memo.

I'd say its not a memo field, since you can't do distinct operations on
a
memo/blob/etc.

Are you sure its not a text field (which has a maximum of 255 chars in
access)?
