Text data type

What if I want a field name such as "Description" but need to key in a
description which is more than the maximum field size for a text data type
which is 255 characters. How do I go about it?

It's ok guys. I found out how I can hold more text and it's through the use
of the memo data type. :)

That's right. I'd just like to point out that you shouldn't use Description
as a field name. That's a reserved word, and you can run into problems when
you use reserved words for your own purposes.
