Memo filed truncates at 256 characters in the report

2
I'm having a problem w/MS Access truncating a memo field in a report at 256 characters. I'm using MS Access 2000. Any suggestions appreciated.

Have you set the fields properties to 'Can Grow'?

Yes. Many times it truncates right in the middle of the line of text.

Sorry. I set up a test and it printed all 404 characters for me.
I don't normally use memo fields so have little experience here. Maybe because I was using Access 2K3 :(.
