You may want to post this in the MS Works discussion group
(link below) and include the version of MS Works you're
using and what you're trying to achieve (i.e. what you
need to store in the database field). There might be
a different solution within Works.
===========
When merging a database field into a Works document, there is a limit to the
number of characters from the database field that will come into the new
document. How do I increase the number of characters allowed to merge from
each field, into the new document?>>
