Robert,

To avoid this problem you can map Access VarChar field to VFP memo field.

>I'm involved in a project that requires me to use VFP Remote Views to connect to MS Access 97 tables. The remote view is set up to allow the Access table to be updated. Everything is working as expected except that all updates sent to the Access table are padded with spaces to the full length of the VarChar field in the Access table.
