Linking Access to an Oracle database
"jbaldwin" <u24008[ at ]uwe> 11.07.2006 20:57:38
I am trying to link an Oracle database to my Access tables. when I do so
Access is translating my Oracle table which is set to VARCHAR(412) to a memo
field. I actually only have about 150 characters in the field. I can't make
any changes to the Oracle database.

Can someone tell me how to get Access to truncate the field and set it to a
text field with a default value of 255 characters?

Thanks
