[AccessD] Reader problem: memo field complains when entering Word text

I wonder if the problem memo field being pasted into is part of a
query result set? Perhaps the query would only allow the limit of a
text field in a memo field while the table itself would allow the
larger size?  Just a guess. You could create a query over your test
table and try that maybe.
