>Fred,
>You're thinking the same thing I was. I created a simple form to test this, however, and it works fine - I can enter any # of chars. What I did was create a new, blank form and added one text box and one commandbutton. In the click event of the button, I put "thisform.text1.value=''". After clicking it, I can still go to the text box and enter in anything. AUGH! I'm sure I've dealt with this before - it must be dependent on other settings/environment datatypes, etc...

Yeah, after I sent that message, I tried it too, and it does allow you enter data. I must have been a NULL field value that stopped entry. Anyways, Tom says he's got a workaound for his problem.

>Can you help me?

What help do you need?
