I already thought about that. However, 'short' description really contains more than 255 characters and shown in edit box as multi-line description (grid's rowheight = ~60). So, it is not a case.

>If it's a really short description, then put the text into a textbox (use a substr() to get the first 100 or 200 characters). Then let the user doubleclick if they wish to see more. I agree that 'Memo' is NOT a good thing to see.

>>The problem is that memo field used to show short description for items in grid. Will you appreciate application where you should double click or press keys just to read that description? It will be much better to show it just in the line of grid instead of user-confusing 'Memo' word.

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
