Display of description field cut to 255 characters
I am trying to display contents of product description fields which vary in length. Field type is varchar(8000)in SQL Server 7, but ASP only retrieves and displays up to 255 characters.
I have tried the VB 'GetChunk' method, but get "The operation requested by the application is not allowed in this context" error.
Will it work if I change the SQL field data type to Text?
Any other suggestions?

Wanda,
Why are you doing all that work manually? Use ASPdb (www.aspdb.com) to do the whole thing for you.

Yeah, thanks for the sales pitch, but most people use this board to get a technical answer to their problems because we want to do it that way...
