Drew: That's where the 2k/4k data pages and record locking by page/record come from. Try creating 9 text fields of 255 characters in a table record. Access 97 will puke it out immediately. I'm not certain how unicode compression fits in with newer versions but I assume it is at the transfer, not storage stage. Of course we have memo fields...
