AW: [AccessD] Need more than 255 fields! (was - Hit the Wall?)

How about 2 tables with a 1:1 relationship? To display that as a form
you could use an main form/sub form approach or two subforms on an (unbound)
main form.

But 270 field - who is gonna read/understand this?? Does that even fit on
a standard-size-display?

Go with an unbound form.  There is no limit to how many properties a Class
can have, so build a class to represent a 'record', and fill it with
multiple recordsets.

Any other ideas on ways to resolve this issue?

Thanks!

In an Access app w/FE and BE, I need a table that has about 270 fields.  A
single form will be bound to the table.  (This is a business process
management application.)  If I upsize this to a project (never done this), I
can have up to 1024 fields in a table.



I tried creating a query to join two smaller tables, but queries are also
limited to 255 columns.



Is there a way around this so I can still use an Access BE?



Thanks!

Dan Waters
