ACC2: Output To Command Truncates DataLast reviewed: May 14, 1997Article ID: Q125594 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSAdvanced: Requires expert coding, interoperability, and multiuser skills. When you use the Output To command to save the output of a report to MS-DOS Text (.TXT) format, some of the data in the output file may be truncated. All of the data appears correctly when you print or preview the report.
CAUSEThe Output To command ignores the CanGrow property for text boxes and sections when you save to a text file. The data that fits in the text box or section's original size will be output and the rest will be truncated.
RESOLUTIONTo work around this problem, either change the size of the text box or section so that all the data fits, or save the report to Rich Text Format (.RTF) instead of text, and then use another application or utility to convert the file to text format.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access version 2.0. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 7.0.
