MS Works 9 database error.

M

Mrs. P

I'm having trouble when I try t to merge my MS works 9 datbase with my MS
Works word processing page. For some reason, if I type a small paragraph into
a database field that size allows for 300 characters, only 200 will show up
on the WP doc - it's as if the field formatted in the wdb. has a limit to the
number of characters you can merge with the wp. page. Anyone else have this
problem?
I'm using windows vista and I've heard there are issues with Works and
vista....

This newsgroup is for a different program - Microsoft Access. Oddly enough,
Microsoft's two desktop database applications (Works and Access) are pretty
much incompatible and don't talk to each other. I would suggest you find a
newsgroup supporting Works.
