I'd have them email the back end to you and try it yourself. Or use Remote Assistance to look at the field. It certainly sounds like they're trying to paste into a Text field not a memo.

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.
