MS Access ADODB.recordset character limit is 2036!? Can this be increased?
- by souper-dragon
In the following AccessVBA code, I am trying to write a record to a memo field called "Recipient_Display":
oRec1.Fields("RECIPIENT_DISPLAY") = Left(sRecipientDisplayNames, Len(sRecipientDisplayNames) - 2)
When the string contains 2036 characters, the write completes. Above this number I get the following error:
Run-time error'-2147217887(80040e21)':
Could not update; currently locked by another session on this machine.
What is the significance of this number 2036 and is there a property I can adjust that will allow the above update to take place?
