We've experienced the same problem, our standard O.S. copyright info. is longer than 250 characters. The only way I've found to include all of the text is to split it into two text boxes and align both boxes so that it looks like a single paragraph. Not ideal.
If you hear of any better solutions, please let me know.

Subject: MI text length
Good morning, evening, and night to all.
Has anyone come across a text constraint relating to the number of
characters and spaces that can be inputted into a text window. I have had a
user who complained when he tried to type in a small essay into a layout
window. After he had typed out his essay and chose OK, only 250 approx
characters and spaces total were visible and printable. I myself, out of
curiosity, tried the same process in a map window and had the same result.
The MapInfo version we are currently using is 5.5.
My questions are:
* is there a reason for this?
* are is there any fixes?
* are we doing the process incorrectly?
* and is it a bug?
Any help and discussion on this topic would be very helpful
Thanks heaps
Ethan
