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.TransferText. When I run the query, there are two
memo fields: Description and CompoundEOString. They both appear
correctly. When I export the file, the CompoundEOString is truncated
to 256 characters. I have tried:
-Exporting to xls and csv files from code using TransferText and
TransferSpreadSheet
-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
