Text box bound to Memo Field

[Piri]

Access 97
I have a form with a text box bound to a table memo field.
It seems the text box is limited to a number of characters somewhat less
that that of the memo field.

I appreciate a table text field is limited to 255 characters.
Does this also apply to a text box in a form?

If so, how would I display the full content of the memo field - maybe up
to 500 characters?

Or is something else in the design / set-up limiting the text box?

Thanks for any help

Something else is limiting your number of characters. Check the format
property to make sure it is empty.
