Hi Mark,

This error is being reported by one of my workmates here.

We're not using VFP - we're using ASP/ADO.

Best.

>I am not sure why you get the error, but LONG is what you should use which is the same as SQL Server TEXT data type. Long also would be the VFP memo field. Unlike VFP and SQL Server, you may only have 1 LONG data type per table. Can you get more specific error information using AERROR() right after you get this error?
