Hi Patrick
DO you get this error as an exception form within your code or is it
deligated from access? . try debugging to view the size of your encrypted
value

I don't believe you can directly update a memo column if you need to surpass the 255 character
limit. You might want to post your code so we can see how you are updating this column.

the error was coming from within the try block in my app.I believe youre
right....once i switched to sh SHA1 (64 bit) i got no complaints.
the access help, however, indicated that long and/or formatted text could
be stored using ole object...but that didnt work either.

thanks again,
patrick

Hi Patrick,

use my example for a access solution with the NET Framework Class Library
namespaces: system.data.oleclient.
Define the type of the field in the access database as ole.

Greeting

Thomas
