Test field won't let me enter long strings?

I thought I posted on this before, but I can't find it, so...

I have a text field in a form bound to a varchar(100). However you can only
type about 40-50 characters into it when it stops accepting input. Anyone
have any ideas why? Is this is Unicode issue? Or perhaps it "remembers" the
old side of the field (which was smaller, IIRC).

If you have a split system, have you refreshed the linked Tables?

If you haven't, the Access Front-End "remembers" the old Table structure.

Sorry. No ideas about ADP as I don't used ADP except for minor testing.

OTOH, I think in ADP, the Table Structure is in the SQL Server and the ADP
Front-End should pick up the changes in the Back-End automatically. Hence,
your problem may be somewhere else.
