Try re-arranging your data so that the record with the 335 characters is the
first record in the data source.

Yes, I have tried the various methods of connecting to the data source
that
are available. However, these do not correct the issue.

I am using an Excel file for my data source. One of my text fields has
335
characters including spaces and is being cut off at 255 characters
including
spaces. I have checked "Confirm File Format Conversion on Open". but
this
has
not resolved the issue as indicated in earlier versions of Office. Has
anyone
found a resolution to this issue in Office 2007?
