That is so interesting.  Microsoft has a bug in an implementation of
something only Microsoft has (memo fields) and it is fixed by an
aggregation only Microsoft has, and further it is confirmed that the fix is
faster and cures the other inherent limitation of memo fields (<=256)

This isn't horses for courses it is course for horses...

Well thank you for your digging, I should have performed a better search.
Howe er, we talk about so little Access related stuff here I figured no
harm done even if it were a well traversed course or a worn out horse.
