Hi All,

I had a simalier problem back in 2006, but I can't seem to fix this one. I have a select string:
SELECT TYPE, calldate AS act_time, lcPrblem AS problem_id, ;
  "OLDFLTDB" AS user_id, lcclient AS client_id, ;
  ALLTRIM(contacttype) + " - " + ;
  TEXT AS act_notes, ;  <------- this is a memo field
  "Number: " + ALLTRIM(STR(NUMBER)) ;
  + "  ID: " + ALLTRIM(STR(ID)) AS nxtact_not, ;  <------- this is a memo field
  TTOD(calldate) AS act_date ;
  FROM ctempaction LEFT JOIN cactiontype ;
  ON ctempaction.TYPE = cactiontype.contacttypeid ;
  WHERE NUMBER = lnnumber ;
  AND !EMPTY(TEXT) ;
  INTO CURSOR csupaction READWRITE nofilter
I am getting 'String is too long'. I have tried pading the text to be greater the 255 at all time. but that causes the error on all records.

Any suggestions?

TIA
Beth
