What I did todiscover this is put in a few lines of text for testing purposes. Thenafter I got my snytax right, I went back and added a bunch of text to onetextarea. It took it the first time. But I noticed a typo so went tocorrect it, no dice. Then I tried to change another field of this recordwith 8 characters in it, no dice. So then I deleted the record and put thewhole thing in again from scratch. It took it just fine, but I could notchange it if I wanted to. Then I created new record with a small amount oftext in the text block and I could change any field I wanted. Doing a getinfo on the db with just my one large record shows it at 1,034 bytes. Hopethis helps.===============================================Gary Richter PanaVise Products, Inc. 7540 Colbert Dr. Reno, Nevada 89511 Ph: 702.850.2900 Fx: 702.850.2929 Email: grichter@panavise.com http://www.panavise.com===============================================
