Hi, I've a text box in my Order Entry [table type - MEMO] which records the Item Description. At times user enter about 20 lines into this box by using Shift F2. It is okay in the form, but when send to print half of the lines do not appear, around 8 lines are printed out.. strange but true. I've set "Can Grow / Can Shrink" to YES, still this error appears. I am using a dot matrix printer to print. What must I do more to correct this? Any help is much appreciated.

Sounds like the memo field is getting truncated to 255 character
Are using a query with Distinct and/or grouping that includes the Memo field?

Hi Boyd, Yes I got it right by inserting "first" instead of "Group By". I really do not know how to manage the DB without you guys. Thanks guys.
