>>I have created a document table with a field 'comments', a varchar(7000) field. The table has few other fields, all of which total less than 7500 (i.e. it is not over the 8080 limit). When I go into Word and create an entry, then try to cut and paste it into the table (through enterprise manager), it does not respond, or rather it responds as if I have pasted an empty string.

Where can I look for documentation of this limitation?
