I am using the memo-blob fields from Access and from SQL server. Can I pass one large string to VB - or how do I handle something that is more than 3250 bytes long???

The following is a quote from MSDN:
Quote:
There are two kinds of strings: variable-length and fixed-length strings.
A variable-length string can contain up to approximately 2 billion (2^31) characters.
A fixed-length string can contain 1 to approximately 64K (2^16) characters.
Note APublic fixed-length string can't be used in aclass module.
The codes forString characters range from 0–255. The first 128 characters (0–127) of the character set correspond to the letters and symbols on a standard U.S. keyboard. These first 128 characters are the same as those defined by theASCII character set. The second 128 characters (128–255) represent special characters, such as letters in international alphabets, accents, currency symbols, and fractions. Thetype-declaration character for String is the dollar sign ($).
