I am a bonehead. In stripping down my code for posting here, the problem suddenly went away. I was building a temporary table and all this time I've been overlooking the fact that my txtSWDesc1 field in the tmp table was set to 255. My apologies to everyone. And thanks for trying to help me.

I'm a little curious about this assumption, given that I know I've successfully used mysql_query() and mysql_fetch_array() on pieces of data much bigger than that. Does echo strlen($myrow[txtSWDesc1]); produce the output you'd expect? --- Mark Roedel | "There is only one truly satisfying way Systems Programmer | to boot a computer."
