Truncated text in memo fileds when importing from Excel

Similar topics

by: GorDon | last post by:

Hi, I have a report based on a query. The query grabs a memo field from my main table, yet when I display the memo field in the report it truncates the memo field (the field needs to hold more than 255 characters). The table holds all the memo text, but the query seems to truncate the memo field to 255 chars? This seems like there should be a relatively easy fix, but I can't seem to find it.

Fixed Width Text File Import Programmtically

by: Johnny Meredith | last post by:

I have seven huge fixed width text file that I need to import to Access. They contain headers, subtotals, etc. that are not needed. There is also some corrupt data that we know about and can correct once the data is in Access (or during the import process itself). Furthermore, the text files are poorly set up, such that some records may be "shifted" over a few characters, and therefore the fixed width nature of the file is corrupted. ...

Using a Text file with Long Rows as an Input Data Source

by: R Bolling | last post by:

I have a text file from a text document that has very long rows (two or three paragraphs from a text document for each row). Importing to text cuts it off at 255 characters, and importing to a memo still cuts it short. TransferText cut it short too. Someone suggested that I use the following code. It works, but it populates only one row of the text. Missing something critical. Any ideas on how to get this to work? 'Beginning of...

Import Excel text to Access memo, preserving carriage returns

by: jollyroger | last post by:

I have searched the web forums, and can't seem to find an answer to this particular problem I have. In an excel sheet, cells in one column have formatted text in the "wrapped" cells. For many of the cells it is far more than 256 char. After import to Access, the carriage return (CR) and Line Feed (LF) is shown with a square symbol in the text, and the text is just "dumped" into the field without CR or LF. Have also tried to indentify the...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
