Export to CSV Truncates 2nd Memo Field

I am using Access 2003, and trying to Export query results in code to
a csv file.

I am using DoCmd.TransferT ext. When I run the query, there are two
memo fields: Description and CompoundEOStrin g. They both appear
correctly. When I export the file, the CompoundEOStrin g is truncated
to 256 characters. I have tried:
-Exporting to xls and csv files from code using TransferText and
TransferSpreadS heet
-Exporting to xls files from the Office Tools menu
-Using an export specification (comma delimited)
-Exporting from right clicking on the query
All of them truncate the 2nd memo field. Some cases the Description
field is several thousand characters, and it is never truncated.

If I use the Office Tools menu and export to Word, it exports
correctly.

Any help would be appreciated.

John

Hi all, I have a query in ASP.NET that selects text from a memo field in Access (among other things). The query appears to be truncating the text at 255 characters. I've done a little research on this and found some other Google Groups threads that were helpful, but I still don't have a solution. My query is rather complicated and uses a union, but not the keyword distinct. The query is displayed in a datagrid, and I don't know how I...

I have a query that combines the results of three related tables. The memo fields are truncated to 255 characters, but I need all the information in them. I'm aware that removing code such as DISTINCT and GROUPBY will fix this problem (as discussed in other threads in this group), but I need to limit the query results to unique values, which is what DISTINCT does for me. Any suggestions? Thanks, Jacob

I need to export a query to Excel with a memo field. The memo field keeps getting cut off at 255 characters. If I just cut and paste, I get the whole memo field. I need it in Excel without having to go through all that. Any ideas? Thanks! Laura

The problem is....when the user exports the report to excel, it seems to be truncating this memo field after 512 chars. After that, there appears funny chars that look like tiny squares. Excel...
