Table Field content is truncated

Hi All,

My table has a field of data type LCHR with a length of 32,000 (I've also created a field of data type INT2 preceeding it). Now when I try to extract the data from the LCHR table-field (32,000 length) using an 'ABAP' the extract is truncated to 255 characters.

Can you tell me why this is happening and provide a solution please. Thanks.

Manu.
