Charles,

There was a recent thread about the same problem just few days ago. The limit is 254 characters. If it's a form, you can put the desired expression in Form.Init, e.g.
suppose you have a listbox with long RowSource, you can put in Form.Init:
this.lstSource.RowSource="long selection string goes here"

If it's in Report, it's a little bit harder. You probably should use several fields with shorter expressions (if you're trying to create a single field based on concatenation of fields) or you can use functions, e.g.
in field expression put Fun1(), and create fun1 in the same directory, where you have your report (or in your path), with necessary calculation.

HTH
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
