Text Data Storage?

B

Bryan Brassell

Here I am learning VBA and SQL, but I can't answer the
simplest question: how best to deal with text?

For example, if I put the products that appear on a retail
website in a database, I obviously can't put in the
product descriptions that may be ove 255 characters. How
best to handle this? .txt files with a FileName field in
the database?

Thanks,

Bryan Brassell
