Form/Table Field Size

[Guest]

I have a text box on a form that is basically a notes box that you can add
text and notes about the current record in but I am having a problem with the
size.. My field in my table is called say "notes" and it the field will only
allow for 255 characters to be input into it therefore allowing only 255
characters in my notes box on my form.. is there a way to increase this
number or a different way to go about making a box on a form to put in
general notes that might go above 255 characters?

Open your table in design view.

Select the Notes field, and change the Data Type column from Text to Memo.
