Crystal Reports XI string field 255 character limit

755 Views

I am using crystal reports pro 11.0.0.1282

the report data source is a sql view (the database is on a MSSQL server 2005), connected by an ODBC connection

I am having an issue with a notes field (the field in the sql view is a varchar(max); most of the records have more than 255 characters in this field; outside the crystal report the data can be viewed fully; however in the report it gets truncated at 255 characters)

I thought there was no longer a limitation on string limitation on string fields?

is there any way around this?
