Question : Access 2003 report textbox limits to 255 characters

Hi,

I have a report that populates a textbox based on a query. Though the underlying field is Memo, somehow the textbox in the report is truncating the text at 255 characters. I have the textbox set to expand automatically, so I know that's not the problem. From surfing around online, I can see that there is something to do with the fact that the textbox is drawing from a query, and not a table. Is there a way around this other than creating a temporary table and manually populating it?

Thanks to anyone who can help...

...Jay
