Hello MapInfo-L users, No response the first time -- I will try again with my question.
I would like to be able to read, query and edit text that is much longer than 254 chacters. Currently, my data are in a memo field in an Access 97 database. People have suggested I use multiple text fields to get around the 254 character limit but this is an extremely awkward solution. I have also tried hotlinks. These could give access to the text data (e.g. in a Word file), but they cannot be queried. I have tried ODBC drivers with Live Access. The memo fields are only available up to 254 characters and they are not editable. Does anyone have any other suggestions or word-arounds. Are there any add-on programs that might help? I am using MapInfo 7.0. Many thanks in advance for your help. -- Best regards, David mailto:ddenton@;lino.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 3997
