Error 2176 - Setting for Property too long

[squirleegirl]

Anybody have any suggestions about a Run-Time 2176 - The setting fo
this property is too long error?

I've got a drop-down box that users pick a test from. They click th
submit button and the results of the test show in the text box. Th
results are in a plain text file to begin with. Works fine for most o
the text files, but a few are larger than others and it is on thos
that I get this error.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Squirleegirl,

You can use the LEFT() function to truncate the values to the first nth
character. This wil ensure that the value assigned to the text box isn't
too long.

Hope this helps,
