SQL Server varchar(8000) being truncated to char(255)

 SQL Server varchar(8000) being truncated to char(255)

In one of my tables, I have four fields that are all varchar(8000) -- not
that I ever need that much text, but I never know with our customer service
department.  Well, I created one report, that seems intent on truncating
these fields to 255 characters.  In VB, I can see all the text entered (on
average, about 500 to 1,000 characters) in all my RichText boxes.  But for
some reason or other, the problem comes into play once I start using SCR7.
When I try to print the report from VB6 or from SCR7 itself, I get the same
results.  What's up with the text truncation?  Does it just not like the
varchar datatype?

Thank you kindly...
